Bibliography

Defines requirements and test methods for the construction and performance of cables which: - have thermosetting insulation and a rated voltage of 300/500 V; - provide resistance to fire (circuit integrity), including with mechanical shock and with water, as measured by performance in a standard test or tests; - emit limited amounts of smoke and corrosive gases when burned as measured by a standard test; and - are primarily intended for use in emergency lighting, fire detection and fire alarm system circuits.
