Application- Essential safety circuits where the cable is laid in metal conduit or on metal trays
- Use in emergency lighting and fire alarm system
- Where situation demands single core cable meeting fire resistance test for special application.
Construction1. Copper conductor: Plain annealed stranded class 2 conductor to
BS EN 60228
2. Primary Insulation: Mica Glass tape
3. Secondary Insulation: Extruded XL-LSF compound
Technical data for Ducab Fire Resistant Single Core Cables with stranded copper conductors 600 / 1000 V
Current rating based on installation "enclosed in conduit on a wall or in trunking" in line with BS 7671 (IEE Wiring Regulations) Laying condition: 30°C ambient temperature & 90°C operating temperature. For other ambient temperatures appropriate rating factors should be applied.

- Fire Resistance: C-W-Z test as per BS 6387 for small sizes and IEC 60331-21 for large sizes which cannot fit in a conduit.
- Acid gas emission: Less than 0.5 % when tested to IEC 60754 & BS EN 50267
- Low smoke emission: As per IEC 61034 & BS EN 50268
- Ducab – FR SC cables comply to IEC 60331-21 fire test at increased temperature of 950°C, which is higher than that specified by the standard.
Technical Data Introduction Performance Characteristics is Fire Resistant Single Core cable with approval from Loss Prevention
Certification Board, UK for the use in emergency safety circuits to maintain circuit integrity
under fire conditions.
These cables are certified by LPCB as fire resistant on the basis of successful fire resistance
tests carried out in their laboratory. For smaller sizes which can fit in a conduit, C-W-Z tests of
BS 6387 are carried out whereas for large size cables a fire resistance test as per IEC 60331-21
is carried out at an enhanced temperature of 950°C. The applied voltage during the fire testing
is based on the 600/1000 volts system.
The cables are designed for laying in metallic conduit or in cable trunking
where electrical circuit integrity under fire circumstances is of paramount importance. These
cables are designed with special materials which ensure very low smoke and zero halogen in
the event of a fire. The low smoke generation gives better visibility in a fire situation aiding the
rescue operation and enabling the EXIT path to be seen clearly for escape. As there is no
halogen or acidic gas emission during burning of the cable, the sensitive equipments in the
surrounding areas are not affected adversely.
These cables employ primary insulation of Mica Glass fire resistant tape along with the
secondary insulation of Cross Linked Low Smoke and Fume (XL-LSF) material. This cable has
an operating temperature of 90°C. The cable is suitable for installation in accordance with BS
7671 – IEE wiring regulations.
Ducab’s Quality Management System is certified to ISO 9001 by BASEC.
