Description
BS 6387 C
To comply with this standard the cable must retain continuity for 180 minutes under fire condition at 950 degrees C
BS 6387 W
To comply with this standard the cable must retain continuity for 30 minutes under fire condition at 650 degrees C with water spray applied during the final 15 minutes
BS 6387 Z
To comply with this standard the cable must retain continuity for 15 minutes under fire condition at 950 degrees C with a mechanical shock applied every 30 seconds during the full 15 minutes test
BS EN 50200 PH30
To comply with this standard a cable must retain continuity for 30 minutes under fire condition at 830 degrees C with a mechanical shock applied every 5 minutes during the full 30 minutes test
