Common test methods for cables under fire conditions - Test for resistance to vertical flame propagation for a single insulated conductor or cable -- Part 2-1: Procedures - 1 kW pre-mixed flame

EN 50265 specifies a method of test for resistance to flame propagation for a single electrical insulated conductor or cable, or optical cable, under fire conditions. Part 1 specifies the test apparatus and Part 2 specifies various procedures. EN 50265-2-1 specifies the use of a 1kW pre-mixed flame and is for general use, except that the procedure specified may not be suitable for the testing of small single insulated conductors or cables of less than 0,5 mm² total cross-section because the conductor melts before the test is completed, or for the testing of small optical fibre cables because the cable is broken before the test is completed. In these cases, the procedure given in EN 50265-2-2 is recommended. This standard includes an informative annex of recommended requirements for conformity. NOTE: Since the use of insulated conductor or cable which retards flame propagation and complies with the recommended requirements of this standard is not sufficient by itself to prevent propagation of fire under all conditions of installation, it is recommended that wherever the risk of propagation is high, for example in long vertical runs of bunches of cables, special installation precautions should also be taken. It cannot be assumed that because the sample of cable complies with the performance requirements recommended in this standard a bunch of cables will behave in a similar manner. (See EN 50266 - under preparation.)
