BATT CABLES plc offers many fire cables which are suitable for critical safety systems including emergency power supplies & lighting, fire alarms, sprinkler systems, CCTV, security alarms and PA systems. Fire cables have a low smoke, zero halogen sheath (LSZH) and so are suitable for installation in public buildings where improved visibility for evacuation and a reduction in toxic fumes are important. All our fire cables comply with the relevant national and international standards including BS6387, BS7629, IEC 60331 and IEC 60332.
A range of mineral cables are also available which will continue to operate even after exposure to fire.
