Extended application of results from fire resistance tests for service installations - Part 1: Ducts
This European Standard identifies parameters that affect the fire resistance of ducts for ventilation purposes. It also identifies the factors that need to be considered when deciding whether, or by how much a parameter can be extended either positively or negatively when contemplating the fire resistance on an untested variation in the construction.
This European Standard, where applicable, gives guidance on additional tests that are needed to extend the field of application.
The European Standard gives the principles behind how a conclusion on the influence of specific parameters/constructional details relating to the relevant criteria (E, I, S) can be achieved.
This European Standard only applies to ducts tested to EN 1366 1. Duct sections for use other than in fire resisting heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems are not covered by this European Standard. It does not cover ducts used for smoke control which are tested in accordance with EN 1366 8 or EN 1366 9.
Erweiterter Anwendungsbereich der Ergebnisse aus Feuerwiderstandsprüfungen für Installationen - Teil 1: Leitungen
Diese Europäische Norm benennt Parameter, die die Feuerwiderstandsfähigkeit von Lüftungsleitungen beeinflussen. Sie benennt auch die Faktoren, die bei der Entscheidung berücksichtigt werden müssen, ob und in welchem Ausmaß ein Parameter entweder in positiver oder negativer Richtung erweitert werden kann, wenn die Feuerwiderstandsfähigkeit an einer ungeprüften Abweichung in der Konstruktion betrachtet wird.
Diese Europäische Norm gibt, soweit zutreffend, eine Anleitung für zusätzliche Prüfungen, die erforderlich sind, um den Anwendungsbereich zu erweitern.
Die Europäische Norm liefert die Grundsätze, nach denen eine Schlussfolgerung über den Einfluss von bestimmten Parametern/Konstruktionsdetails, welche die entsprechenden Kriterien (E, I, S) betreffen, erreicht werden kann.
Diese Europäische Norm gilt nur für Leitungen, die bereits nach EN 1366 1 geprüft wurden. Leitungsabschnitte, die zu anderen Zwecken als in feuerwiderstandsfähigen Heizungs-, Belüftungs- und Klimaanlagen verwendet werden, sind nicht Gegenstand dieser Europäischen Norm. Diese Europäische Norm gilt auch nicht für Leitungen, die der Entrauchung dienen und nach EN 1366 8 oder EN 1366 9 geprüft wurden.

Razširjena uporaba rezultatov preskusov požarne odpornosti servisnih inštalacij - 1. del: Požarni kanali
Ta evropski standard določa parametre, ki vplivajo na požarno odpornost ventilacijskih kanalov. Določa tudi dejavnike, ki jih je treba upoštevati pri odločanju, ali je pri obravnavi požarne odpornosti nepreskušene različice stavbe mogoče razširiti ali zožiti parameter in za koliko.
Ta evropski standard vsebuje navodila o dodatnih preskusih, ki jih je treba izvesti za razširitev področja uporabe.
Ta evropski standard določa načela o tem, kako je mogoče doseči sklep o vplivu določenih parametrov/konstrukcijskih lastnosti v zvezi z zadevnimi merili (E, I, S).
Ta evropski standard se uporablja za kanale, preskušene v skladu s standardom EN 1366-1. Kanali, ki se ne uporabljajo za sisteme ogrevanja, hlajenja, prezračevanja in klimatizacije (HVAC), niso zajeti v ta evropski standard. Standard ne zajema kanalov, ki se uporabljajo za nadzor dima in so preskušeni v skladu s standardom EN 1366-8 ali EN 1366-9.

Overview
EN 15882-1:2011+A1:2017 - Extended application of results from fire resistance tests for service installations - Part 1: Ducts (CEN) provides a structured method to extend fire resistance test results from tested ventilation ducts to untested variations of the same duct construction. The standard identifies the parameters that influence fire resistance of ducts for ventilation purposes and gives guidance on when additional tests are required to support an extended field of application.
Key topics and requirements
- Scope limitation: Applies only to ducts tested to EN 1366‑1 (fire resistance tests for service installations - ducts). It does not cover smoke-control ducts (EN 1366‑8 / EN 1366‑9) or duct sections used outside HVAC fire‑resisting systems.
- Performance criteria: Focuses on the relevant criteria E (integrity), I (insulation) and S (smoke leakage) as used for duct classification in EN 13501‑3.
- Critical parameters: Lists and analyses factors affecting fire resistance, such as:
- Orientation (vertical/horizontal), shape and cross‑section changes (rectangular/circular)
- Wall/floor thickness and type, protective material type and thickness
- Pressure variations (positive/negative differential - e.g. >300 Pa / 500 Pa thresholds referenced)
- Supports, hangers, anchors, spacing between supports, length between flanges/spigots
- Joints, access panels, compensators, integrated components (fans, silencers), and combustible materials inside ducts
- Methodology: Requires systematic evaluation of each parameter (often in tabular form) to determine whether a proposed variation will maintain, reduce or require additional testing to confirm the original classification.
- Additional testing & assessment: Where parameter changes could adversely affect E/I/S performance, the standard gives principles for required additional tests, maximum dimensions eligible for classification extension, and how to document an extended application report.
Practical applications and users
This standard is used by:
- Manufacturers of fire‑resisting ventilation ducts and fire‑protected steel ducts to justify variations without full retesting.
- Fire testing laboratories and certification bodies preparing extended application assessments or classification reports.
- Fire safety engineers, HVAC designers and consultants specifying ducts for fire compartmentation and performance-based designs.
- Regulatory authorities and specifiers who evaluate equivalence of untested duct variants against tested reference products.
Practical benefits include reduced need for full-scale retesting, clear justification for acceptable construction variations, and a transparent route to maintain product classifications for fire‑resisting ducts.
