1 Modifications to the “Foreword”
At the end of the third paragraph of the Foreword (starting with “The main changes with respect to the previous
edition are listed below”), add the following new bullet point and Note:
— “For cables, the provisions of the Construction Products Regulation ((EU) No. 305/2011 (CPR)) came fully
into force on 1st July 2017 in respect of Reaction to Fire. These requirements are now expressed by
reference to the relevant class according to EN 13501-6.
NOTE See also Note 3 in the Scope.”
2 Modification to Clause 420.1, “Scope”
In the Scope, add the following after Note 2:
“In respect of cables and their reaction to fire, these protective measures can be expressed by reference to
the Construction Products Regulation (CPR), and the relevant classes according to EN 13501-6.
NOTE 3 Whilst the CPR requires the manufacturer to declare the reaction to fire performance of the cable in
accordance with procedures and classifications that are common across the EU, it is the responsibility of the Member State
to determine which classification is required for any particular application or installation. National statutory requirements
could therefore override the levels quoted here.”
3 Modification to Clause 420.2, “Normative references”
In Clause 420.2, add the following references:
“EN 13501-6, Fire classification of construction products and building elements - Part 6: Classification using
data from reaction to fire tests on power, control and communication cables
EN 60670-1, Boxes and enclosures for electrical accessories for household and similar fixed electrical
installations - Part 1: General requirements (IEC 60670-1)”
4 Modification to 422.2.1
In 422.2.1, replace Note 1 with the following Note:

NOTE 1
For cables, compliance with this requirement is achieved by using at least class C -s1,d2,a1 for cables installed in
ca
environment BD2, BD3, and to apply at least class B2 -s1,d2,a1 for cables installed in environment BD4.
ca
For conduit systems, cable trunking systems, cable tray systems and powertrack systems, compliance with this
requirement is achieved by using the following products:
—  conduit systems classified as non-flame propagating according to EN 61386 series;
—  cable trunking systems classified as non-flame propagating according to EN 50085 series;
—  cable tray systems and cable ladder systems classified as non-flame propagating according to EN 61537;
—  powertrack systems complying with EN 61534 series.”
Replace Note 3 with the following normative text:
“It is recommended to apply at least class C -s1,d2,a1 for cables installed in environment BD 2 or BD 3 and
ca
to apply at least class B2 -s1,d2,a1for cables installed in environment BD 4.”

5 Modification to 422.3.4
In 422.3.4, replace the first bullet point:
— “Cables shall satisfy the test under fire conditions specified in EN 60332 series”
with:
— “Cables shall satisfy as a minimum the fire test requirements of class E as described in EN 13501-6”
ca
Replace Note 1 with the following normative text:
“Where the risk of flame propagation is high, e.g. in long vertical runs of bunched cables, it is recommended
to apply cables at least fulfilling the requirements of class C -s1,d2,a1 as defined in EN 13501-6.”
ca
Delete Note 2.
6 Modification to 422.5.1
Replace the Note with the following normative text:
“Fire detectors may be provided which ensure the implementation of measures for preventing propagation of
fire, for example, the closing of fire-proof shutters in ducts, building voids and the like. Boxes and enclosures
according to EN 60670-1 for hollow walls shall be used. Cables shall fulfil the requirements of EN 13501-6, at
least a minimum of a class C -s1,d2,a1.”
ca
7 Modification to Annex ZA, “Normative references to international publications
with their corresponding European publications”
Add the following new references to the Annex ZA:

Publication Year Title EN/HD Year
  Fire classification of construction products and EN 13501-6 -
building elements - Part 6: Classification using
data from reaction to fire tests on electric cables
 Boxes and enclosures for electrical EN 60670-1 -
accessories for household and similar fixed
electrical installations - Part 1: General
requirements

8 Additions to Annex ZB, “Special National Conditions”
Add the following Special National Conditions:

Country Clause Special national condition
420.1 In the Netherlands, the class for “reaction to fire” in accordance to EN 13501-6 shall
