BS6724 Cable

BS6724 compliant mains cable, for use in various applications and industries. Suitable for indoor and outdoor use, underground and in cable ducting.

LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) sheath provides reduced smoke and fume emissions in the event of a fire, as such these cables are intended for installations in environments where fire, smoke emissions, and toxic fumes could pose a threat to life and equipment.

BS6724 cables are manufactured with Low Smoke Halogen Free (LSHF) or Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) compounds, which minimize the amount of smoke and toxic gases released in a fire.

Mechanical protection is provided by (typically Steel Wire Armour - SWA) ,making the cable suitable for direct burial, installation in ducts, and use in harsh environments.

BS6724 cables are suitable for fixed wiring in buildings and industrial settings. Their fire safety properties make them ideal for use in schools, hospitals, and other public buildings. They are also suitable for Tunnels, refineries and power stations due to their low smoke and halogen-free properties.

Many BS6724 cables are manufactured to be compliant with the Construction Products Regulation (CPR), which ensures a certain level of performance in fire situations.
