Low fire hazard cables 1kV

Cables are not dangerous on their own, but they may sometimes cause fires resulting from bad or aging installations, wrong calculations of sections, and poor-quality cables installed, etc

Due to the use of organic materials for insulation and sheathing and their huge volume in buildings, during fires, cables can also severely contribute to:

-Increased smoke production which limits visibility and inhibits escape
-Increased carbon monoxide production, the most lethal gas in fires
-Release of irritant gases

In order to save people and goods from these risks, Nexans offers halogen-free cables which prevent fire propagation and dramatically reduce the emission of smoke and hazardous, acidic, and irritant gases, thus allowing people time to exit safely.
