IEEE Standard for Flame-Propagation Testing of Wire and Cable
Summary
Revision Standard - Active.
Standardization of cable flame propagation testing is beneficial to cable manufacturers, distributors, and users. Uniform procedures; consistent, repeatable results; and measurable test acceptance criteria are required to allow comparisons among competing products and to allow selection of the correct product for the application. These criteria are detailed in this standard.
This standard provides a protocol for exposing cable samples to a theoretical 20 kW (70 000 BTU/h) flaming ignition source for a 20-min test duration. The test determines the flame propagation tendency of single-conductor and multi-conductor cables intended for use in cable trays.
