CPR for Cables

CPR for cables

Most cables designed for permanent installation within domestic, residential and commercial buildings are now

subject to the Construction Products Regulation (CPR), covered by BS EN 50575. This became a legal requirement in

July 2017 so it’s important you understand how to stay compliant.

BS EN 50575 enables designers and installers to consider the contribution that cables make to the spread of fire.

Cables are a particular concern as they run between rooms and floors, above ceilings and are often made from

flammable materials. They can also be a source of ignition if badly installed, damaged or faulty.

The classes

The regulation classifies products into one of seven Euroclasses, but in most instances only five will apply to cables.

You are likely to see a lot of cables to Class Eca and some to Class Fca.

Fire performance: high level of flammability under simple test and burns over 425mm.

Tests: BS EN 60332-1-2 (basic vertical flame test by factory or lab).

FSC Comment: Cables classified to Class Fca may have high levels of flammability due to the

materials they are made of or their designs. For example, cables with a PE sheath that are

primarily intended for outside use, such as telephone or duct grade cable, could be tested

and classified to Class Fca.

Fire performance: limited fire spread under test and burns less than 425mm.

Tests: BS EN 60332-1-2 (by an authorised test house, known as a Notified Body - NB).

FSC Comment: Although this is the least expensive test by an approved independent test

body (NB), it still costs many hundreds of pounds. It is likely that many cables sold in small

volumes will only be tested to this class for commercial reasons. Note that this test does not

measure heat release, toxic fumes or smoke.

Classes Dca, Cca and B2ca also apply to cables. The following classes also have additional tests to measure heat

generated smoke release and can be further tested for smoke density, acidity of gas given off and burning droplets

falling from the cable.

Fire performance: moderate fire spread and potentially high levels of heat generated.

Tests: BS EN 60332-1-2 and BS EN 50399, including smoke generation.

Additional tests: Smoke test, optional flaming droplets and acidity tests.

FSC Comment: This is an expensive test, costing thousands of pounds, but does not have

regular re-test or factory audit costs.

Fire performance: reduced flame spread, limited fire growth/heat release.



FSC Comment: More rigorous test and higher cost than Class Dca but with the additional

cost of regular, independent factory inspections, audits and periodic retesting. This is widely

accepted across Europe as the ‘go to’ standard, but be aware that many cables in their

current form may not meet Class Cca without costly redesign.

Fire performance: low flame spread, minimal fire growth & heat release.



FSC Comment: Similar to Class Cca with lower acceptable heat release rate and burn

measurement. Regular factory audits and re-testing add to the cost. In practice, this is likely

to be the highest CPR class cables will meet.

It is unlikely that any commercial cables will be available to Class B1ca or Aca, simply due to

the materials they are made of and lack of demand.


CPR for Cables

Who’s responsible?

In the UK it is up to the designer, specifier or installer to satisfy themselves that the products

chosen are appropriate for the application and meet any contractual requirements. It is

important to note that at the moment, CPR-classified products can be used within the UK,

whatever their Euroclass - providing that they are contractually acceptable.

When specifying cable in the UK, take care to assess the risk of fire within a building and

the potential ease of evacuation. Airports, hospitals, prisons, tunnels and high rise buildings

all offer their own unique challenges and should be assessed individually.

Which class?

In some parts of Europe, the national regulatory body is defining which Euroclass should be used in a specific

building or application; the UK has not taken this approach. The publication of the 18th Edition IET Wiring

Regulations July 2018 does not specify Euroclasses for specific applications, however some supplementary standards

such as BS 6701:2016+A1:2017 do specify Euroclasses. Specifiers and installers need to ensure the cables they

select are appropriate for the fire risk in the building or application and any contractual terms. The publication of BS

6701:2016+A1:2017 gives specifiers, consultants and installers a set of guidelines for telecommunications cables

and could be used to form the basis of a commercial contract, although this is supplementary to the IET Wiring

Regulations.

CPR does not outlaw the use of cables that emit excessive amounts of toxic fumes and smoke in the event of a

fire. It is down to the specifier to select suitable product, such as Low Smoke Halogen Free (LSHF) versions. Circuit

integrity cables, such as fire alarm cable (i.e. FP200), are not covered by CPR - this is likely to be some years away.

Stay compliant

Declaration of performance

Cables manufactured after July 2017 intended for permanent installation within a domestic, residential or

commercial building, or any other civil structure, should have a Declaration of Performance (DoP) available.

This document shows critical information such as:

Product type

Manufacturer’s name

Class met

By law, manufacturers or anyone importing cables from

outside the EU need to keep records of CPR compliant

cables sold and be able to provide DoP documentation for

up to 10 years after it was first sold. If purchasing FSC or

Tru brand CPR compliant cable, you can easily download

your CPR documentation straight to your mobile, tablet or

desktop through our CPR downloads tool.

In line with the rest of the

industry our LSF cables are

PVC based and will emit some

poisonous gases when burnt.

If you need halogen free

cables please specify LSHF.

FSC stock a wide range of genuine Belden cables or cost effective alternatives with PVC, Low Smoke

Halogen Free and duct grade jackets. Armoured versions are also available from stock.

Data

Introduction

When you need high-quality alternatives to Belden

or other American style data cables we probably

have the one you are looking for. Manufactured to

match the performance as closely as possible you

can be confident that only top quality materials

have been used.

Many types are also made in Low Smoke Halogen

Free (LSHF) versions and contain no PVC or other

halogen emitting materials. These are ideal for use

in public areas such as hospitals, airports, transport

systems, office blocks and shopping centres.

If you need greater protection we also stock duct

grade and Steel Wire Armoured (SWA) options in

the most popular types. The outer sheath is normally

a heavy weather resistant Black PE to give a great

low friction finish making installation easy over long

runs. Where cables are not stocked in duct or SWA

grades, standard product can be armoured or over

sheathed for quantities as low as 100m within days,

so you can get the cable you need quickly without

massive wastage.

The term LSF or Low Smoke and Fume is a non

specific, often misleading term when relating to

Data cable and is rarely found outside the British

market. In most cases, LSF is based on PVC. The

FSC range of LSF cables use PVC that emits reduced

levels of poisonous fumes but they should not

be used as a substitute for LSHF or LSZH cables.

It is best to regard LSF as little or no better than

standard PVC. Beware of anyone telling you

anything different!

Developed for accurate signal transmission in physically demanding conditions the FSC range of transducer and load

cell cables cover all the popular types. The ultra tough polyurethane jacket provides excellent protection against both

water and mechanical damage. To guard against the effects of nearby power cables or other sources of electromagnetic

radiation a choice of either a foil screen with drain wire or a high density tinned copper wire braid is offered.

LAN - Structured Wiring

Introduction

The volumes of LAN or Structured wiring is set

to increase manyfold over the next few years.

Questions surround which category should be

specified or installed. The choice is expanding and

future proofing (at least for the next three years) is

important. Properly installed networks with good

quality products will carry significant amounts of

data at increasing speeds.

At FSC, the emphasis is on quality. Even some

poor quality cables with undersized conductors or

inferior insulations will usually carry data over very

short distances but where consistent performance

is needed over long runs or rapid transfer of large

data files it’s worth installing the best.

External Grade Structured Wiring 32

All FSC ethernet cables use pure copper conductors,

sized appropriately to ensure data transmission

at rates equal to or higher than the relevant TIA

standards. All test results are over the relevant

standard distance (normally 100m including 10m of

test leads) for example, be careful of suppliers that

specify Cat 6 performance up to 40m. It may not

work on longer runs due to lack of headroom.

The external duct grade and armoured versions use

full size conductors and are tested to the relevant

standards for maximum distance, all backed up by

datasheets and test certificates. Some types use the

latest water blocking tape technology.

In addition, much of the range has also been tested

and approved by the HDBaseT alliance ensuring

they are suitable for the ever growing requirement

of home automation including PoE (Power over

Ethernet).

Cat 5E & Cat 5E UTP + Power

Cat 5E Unscreened & Screened and Cat 5E UTP + Power

The FSC range of structured wiring cables are built for performance - we don’t skimp on conductor size or substitute

other materials - we figure that the cost of using a decent cable far outweighs the cost of ripping out an inferior one

and reinstalling something better. The range of Cat 5E cables are tested to a higher level than the industry standard of

100MHz over the full 100m test length. Many of the cables are also independently tested by HDBaseT for professional

video and home automation.

Home Automation

& Audio

Introduction

Home Automation is one of the major growth

areas of the 21st century. With lifestyles changing

more rapidly than ever before, it is not just the

equipment we use to view or listen, it’s ‘our entire

surrounding’.

Home entertainment is no longer limited to

watching on a single screen in a single location,

increasingly users want to move from room to room

and even change the devices they use to consume

their entertainment without breaking continuity.

Every application involves cabling at some stage and

frequently people are moving away from relying

totally on Wi-Fi and wireless to hard wiring buildings

to meet future demands as well as today’s needs.

For this you need quality products. There is no

point installing cheap, substandard products when

performance is critical.

Designed for the professional, these multicore speaker cables are extremely flexible due to the high

rate of conductor twist and the insulation and jacket materials used. Ideal for winding on and off

drums when touring, they even remain flexible at low temperatures making rigging easier. They are

also great for large fixed installations where sound quality is important.

The range of conductor sizes enables long runs with very low power loss.

External Grade Speaker Cables

The FSC range of external grade speaker cables is suitable to be either run through ducts or clipped

to buildings or other exposed areas when an armoured cables not required. The cables are rated

to 0.6/1kV and have XLPE insulation, a water blocking gel tape, a PVC bedding and a UV stable

black polyethylene sheath which also gives additional mechanical strength and water resistance.

The colour code is the conventional for simple wiring and despite their toughness they remain

remarkably flexible.

The gel tape remains dry until exposed to water when it swells to form a water barrier. This prevents

any mess during termination normally associated with petroleum jelly filled cables.

The cable is stocked on bulk drums and can be cut to length to reduce your wastage and save time.

If these cables require added protection we can also armour them with MOQs as low as a hundred

metres. Please see page 206 for more details or call us with your specific requirements.

Parallel Speaker Cables

TS804002

Designed for installations in pubs, clubs, gyms and public buildings as well as high-end domestic

properties, these parallel speaker cables provide easy termination due to the longitudinal core

identification. The high number of pure copper strands and low resistance values enable the

speaker to operate at optimum levels. The question when specifying is to check the purity of the

copper as it is this which gives the lowest resistance figure. In TruSound speaker cables only pure

electrolytic copper is used so it can be classed as OFC (Oxygen Free Copper).

Microphone Cables

TSM02020

Microphone cables come in many shapes and sizes. Super flexibility even at low temperatures is

achieved through the use of a special insulation and highly flexible cotton fillers to maintain a

constant capacitance and avoid noise when the cable flexes. The super flexible jacket also offers

resistance against kinking and lies flat on stage.

The spiral copper shield offers excellent screening whilst remaining flexible and providing

mechanical support when the cable is under physical stress. The four core microphone cables are a

star quad format.

Introduction

Building Management Control or Building

Automation operates at the core of a building’s

energy efficiency and usability.

With a myriad of different systems controlling

everything from lighting, HVAC, blind control

through to security systems and occupancy

monitoring, many installers and designers are

insisting on hard-wired systems for reliability and

practicality.

System manufacturers are increasingly standardising

on cables designed to carry data and power in a

single cable to making routing and installation fast

and simple. With open protocols from organisations

such as KNX and Dali, many systems will interface

seamlessly with a variety of manufacturers

equipment.

With applications ranging from large office blocks,

hospitals, prisons and shopping centres, right

through to residential dwellings and multiple

dwelling units the use of BMS is set to grow in

our quest for greater efficiency linked to greater

comfort and convenience.

Many of the FSC range of BMS cables are Low

Introduction

When it comes to alarm or security cables, quality

really counts. At FS Cables, the focus is on cables

that will do the job they’re designed to do, without

false alarms or more importantly, failures when

alarm conditions are triggered. In short, you will get

products you can rely on from Prysmian, Draka or

FSC own brand.

Customers increasingly require installations that

minimise the risk in the event of a fire and to

this end FSC stock flame retardant and Low

Smoke Halogen Free (LSHF) versions meeting CPR

classifications. LSHF must not be confused with LSF

grade which are normally PVC based (more of this

on page 85).

For applications that run outside the confines of a

building or where vandalism or rodent damage is a

problem duct grade and armoured versions are also

stocked in many types.

Fire alarm, emergency lighting and critical circuits

are all covered by the extensive, market leading,

Prysmian range of FP cables, and Draka Firetuf,

stocked on handy 100m, 200m or 500m reels.

Draka Firetuf Data & Coaxial

Draka Firetuf Data & Coaxial

Firetuf data is a group of high performance fire survival data cables manufactured by Draka and designed to carry on

functioning even in the event of a fire. This allows safe monitoring of evacuation routes without putting lives at risk.

The twisted pair cables provide high data transmission rates and have been developed to mimic Cat 5 cabling as closely

as possible. Increasingly popular with system integrators for BMS applications, the cables can be terminated using

traditional LAN Insulation Displacement Connector (IDC) modules making them ideal for use in horizontal backbone

wiring systems in offices and public buildings.

Where video is carried the coax performs in a similar way to RG59 which is widely used in the CCTV sector. This allows

continued monitoring of fire exits and evacuation routes in the event of a fire. BNC connectors part no. YFTCBC1# are

available to suit Firetuf Coax.

Where people and property come first the Draka Firetuf Data cable range provides the ideal solution.

Alarm Cables

Unscreened Burglar Alarm Cables

Designed for connecting detectors, sensors, keypads and control panels, Alarm cables are the “bread and butter” of

the security industry. Due to the unregulated nature of the cables coming onto the market a new standard has been

introduced. BS 4737-3.30 2015 sets out the construction of the cables and the maximum resistance of the conductors.

The FSC range of unscreened alarm cables are manufactured with a rip cord for easy stripping, available in PVC, LSHF or

a black PE sheathed duct grade version. Packed on 100m, 200m, and 500m reels.

Where data or signal cables may be exposed to mechanical damage, additional protection of

galvanised steel wire armour or SWA is ideal. Suitable for direct burial these cables are also popular

in applications above ground where accidental or deliberate damage may occur.

Common applications include CCTV installations in football stadiums, shopping centres and other

public areas where systems need to continue functioning despite the activities of trouble makers.

Equally important may be data or security cabling in car parks, warehouses and factories where

vehicle damage may severely compromise the operation of business.

Outdoor Control

The FSC range of duct grade YY cable is suitable to be either run through ducts or clipped to

buildings or other exposed areas when an armoured cable is not required. The cables are rated

to 0.6/1kV and have XLPE insulation, a water blocking gel tape, a PVC bedding and a UV stable

black polyethylene sheath which also gives additional mechanical strength and water resistance.

The colour code is the conventional brown, blue, green/yellow (on three core) for simple wiring.

Despite their toughness they remain remarkably flexible.

The gel tape remains dry until exposed to water when it swells to form a water barrier. This

prevents any mess during termination normally associated with petroleum jelly filled cables.

The cable is stocked on bulk drums and can be cut to length to reduce your wastage and save

time. If these cables require added protection we can also armour them with MOQs as low as a

hundred metres. Please see page 206 for more details or call us with your specific requirements.

Tough and flexible, they can also be used as a direct alternative to the old Draka Hi-Tuf cables.

Fibre Optic

Introduction

Fibre Optic cables offer significant advantages over

copper data cables in the right applications.

The majority of the FSC range of Fibre cables are

manufactured by Draka, some using BendBright

technology to ensure trouble-free operation even

where installation and routing are difficult.

Fibre optic cables fall into two categories,

singlemode (OS1 & OS2) for long distances and

multimode (OM1, OM2, OM3 & OM4) for more

localised data distribution. Cables can be supplied

with various numbers of fibres, loose tube or tight

buffered construction, with or without armours.

Compared to copper data cables, fibre is relatively

low cost, lightweight and has small overall

diameters for the number of fibres. It is also immune

to the effects of electromagnetic radiation, so they

can be run alongside power cables or in electrically

noisy environments.

The cost of terminations or connectors and the

electronics at either end can push the system cost

up but fibre offers incredible bandwidth and is able

to carry vast amounts of error-free information over

very small cables. It is the natural choice in an everincreasing

number of applications.

In addition to the internal/external and armoured

options, FSC also stocks the Draka Firetuf range of

Fibre Optic cables. Designed to carry on operating

in the event of a fire, in a similar test to the copper

fire alarm cables, the Draka Firetuf Optical cables

are ideal for critical data circuits. CCTV, evacuation

monitoring and where data needs to be transferred

in emergency situations are ideal applications. Fire

safety is further enhanced by the limited smoke

generation, Halogen free properties and limited fire

spread, making it ideal for use in transport systems,

data centres and hospitals.

Tight buffered cables hold the Fibres in a bedding or buffering of aramid or glass yarn. This has the advantage of not

containing gel making termination easier and is ideal for indoor applications. The FSC range of OS2 Tight buffered fibre

cables are designed for LAN and WAN backbones, particularly in commercial applications such as Data Centres where it

is installed on trays or dry ducts. The cable can be run outdoors due to the tough, water resistant UV stable jacket but it

OM3 50/125µm Loose Tube Fibre Optic Cable Unarmoured & Armoured Int/Ext

OM3 50/125µm fibre, also known as 10Gig fibre, is now the entry level standard for a lot of new installations where

the requirement to transfer data is classed as moderate. Using lasers as the drivers OM2 and OM3 cables can carry vast

amounts of data at either 850nm or 1300nm in some cases up to 550m. Loose tube versions are available in either

armoured or unarmoured versions and are designed for internal or external applications.

OM3 50/125µm Tight Buffered Fibre Optic Cable Int/Ext

Using the OM3 50/125µm fibre in a tight buffered format makes for a simple, easy installation indoors. With no messy

gel to clean up and simple fibre termination, the tight buffered OM3 fibre comes in a range of fibre counts and is

rugged enough to take on difficult routing over long distances. The UV resistant LSHF jacket also enables it to be used

outdoors or run between buildings in ducts.

OM4 50/125µm Loose Tube Fibre Optic Cable Unarmoured & Armoured Int/Ext

OM4 50/125µm fibres are great for high-speed data transfer around and between buildings. With lower losses than

OM3 fibre, OM4 is becoming the “go to” standard. OM4 fibre is backwards compatible with OM3 and can use the

same connectors. Although more expensive, OM4 fibre is coming down in price as volumes increase. Stocked in

OM4 50/125µm Tight Buffered Fibre Optic Cable Int/Ext

Tight buffered OM4 50/125µm fibre is laid in a bed of E-Glass yarn and offers great tensile strength and crush resistance

whilst being easy to terminate. Due to the low loss performance OM4 fibre provides, installations can either be over

greater distances or have more couplings in them whilst still providing superior performance over OM3, with which it is

fully backward compatible. LSHF UV resistance jackets make the cable suitable for installation internally clipped to tray or

externally run through ducts.

LSHF

Introduction

Recent figures show that around 4,000 people die each

year in fires in Europe. Of these, 90% of the deaths are

in buildings and around 90% of these are overcome

by smoke & fumes and not by the fire itself. That’s over

3,200 people killed by toxic fumes & gases.

Low Smoke Halogen Free (LSHF) cables emit minimal

levels of toxic fumes and smoke in the event of a fire.

They are ideal for installations in areas that may be

difficult to evacuate in the event of fire such as airports,

hospitals or Underground/Metro stations or confined

areas such as computer rooms and other sensitive

environments.

Standard PVC cables are made up of Hydrocarbons

which, when burnt, give off toxic gases such as

hydrogen chloride gas. Specifying Low Smoke Halogen

Free (LSHF) cable goes a long way to reducing this risk.

Compared to standard PVC which emits around 28%

acid gas, LSHF cables produce less than 0.5% HCl

(Gases Evolved During Combustion BS EN 60754-2).

Visibility through smoke emission is measured using a

3m³ smoke test to BS EN/IEC 61034. Most LSHF cables

produce very little smoke as opposed to standard PVC

which gives off dense black smoke.

Confusion still surrounds the terminology used to

describe LSHF cables. While LSHF, LS0H, LSZH, LSNH

and 0HLS are all the same, LSF (Low Smoke & Fume)

may not be.

LSF data, signal, control & flexible cables often contain

PVC compounds and can still emit in excess of 22%

HCl. They should be regarded as only slightly better

than PVC in the event of fire. The LSF cables in this

book are PVC based and not halogen free.

If you are unsure of what you are buying, ask for

written confirmation that the cable is LSHF throughout.

A PVC insulation with an LSHF jacket is very dangerous

in the event of a fire.

At FSC when you select LSHF, you can be confident

you are buying a high quality Low Smoke Halogen Free

cable throughout - cores, jacket and other elements.

Public and government buildings are increasingly using LSHF cabling to reduce the risk of injury through smoke

inhalation in the event of a fire. The cables also produce fewer gases which are less corrosive when burnt, which is

particularly important where sensitive electronic equipment is installed such as in computer rooms.

Introduction

From simple PVC flexes to high-performance robotic

cables, the FSC range has them all!

Large stocks of the relatively conventional YY, CY,

and SY cables are held ranging from 2-50 core and

from 0.5mm² to 35mm². These are a popular choice

for many industrial and commercial installations.

Def Stans and LiYY or LiYCY are ideal where

miniature conductor sizes are needed. Stocked in

unscreened and screened versions they are colour

coded for easy identification when terminating.

Where frequent movement is needed, highly

flexible cables with special insulation and sheaths

are required. Spiral cables are ideal for some

applications whereas the HF series is specifically

designed for repetitive movement through a drag

chain or under guidance.

Give us a call to talk through your application; we

are bound to have a cable to suit.

Flexibility is ensured through the use of fine copper wire stranding and pliable PVC compounds. This makes the cable

ideal for use on portable or movable equipment or where flexibility will make installation considerably easier.

A 600/1000V grade is also now available in sizes above 0.75mm² as are American UL listed versions. Where resistance to

water or oils is required, polyurethane (PUR) jackets offer excellent protection and are available on short lead times. For

Low Smoke Halogen Free (LSHF) types, please see LF-319 on pages 88 & 89.

LiYCY PVC Screened Multicore

LiYCY has a tinned copper wire braid screen, providing protection from electromagnetic interference (EMI) and reducing

electromagnetic radiation (EMR). This can be important when trying to ensure electromagnetic compatibility (EMC). Core

identification is either number coded or colour coded.

Miniature versions with cores between 0.14mm² and 0.34mm² and unscreened types with colour coding to DIN 47100

are shown on pages 106 & 107.

With the cores twisted into pairs and overall screens known as LiYCY-TP, part numbers starting 325 please see pages

108 & 109; or twisted pairs without a screen LiYY-TP - part numbers starting 305.

LiYY PVC Multicore

LiYY Miniature Signal Cable with DIN 47100

Flexibility is ensured through the use of fine copper wire stranding and pliable PVC compounds. This makes the cable

ideal for use on portable or movable equipment or where flexibility will make installation considerably easier. Large sizes

are also available on short lead times as are American UL listed versions. Where resistance to water or oils is required,

polyurethane (PUR) jackets offer excellent protection and are available on short lead times.

LiYCY-TP PVC

LiYCY-TP PVC Screened Paired Cables

Popular as a European alternative to the American style data cables, LiYCY-TP has the cores twisted into pairs to

reduce cross talk. The DIN 47100 colour code makes it easy to identify each conductor. The effects of electromagnetic

interference (EMI) are also minimised by the use of an overall tinned copper wire braid screen. Used extensively for signal

& data transmission where flexibility is important LiYCY-TP is designed for fixed or occasional movement although the

cable construction makes installation and routing through confined spaces simple.

CY PVC

113

CY PVC Bedded Screened Multicore

Protecting signals from electromagnetic interference (EMI) or reducing electromagnetic radiation (EMR) from supply

cables has substantially increased the need for screened multicore cables. Fine copper wire strands insulated with PVC

and combined with pliable PVC inner and outer sheaths ensure excellent flexibility, while the tinned copper wire braid

forms an effective screen.

Clear white numbering on black cores enables fast ‘right first time’ termination, vital when working with large numbers

of cores or under artificial lighting which may distort core colours. CY has many uses including general wiring in machine

tool applications especially in conjunction with PLC or microprocessor controlled manufacturing operations where signal

interference could cause major problems.

Also used as a supply cable where circumstances result in power and data cables being run in close proximity to each

other. In these cases, EMR can be significantly reduced. Not to be confused with SY which has a steel wire braid

normally of much lower coverage.

CONSTRUCTION

Fine copper wire strands to BS EN 60228 Class 5.

Black PVC insulation with white numbers, a green/

yellow earth conductor in cables with more than 2

cores. (Colour coded versions also available). Cores

twisted together. Grey PVC inner sheath, tinned

copper wire braid, clear PVC outer sheath.

Spiral Cables

Spiral Cables

FSC offers both signal and power versions of retractable spiral cables. The variations in conductor size, insulation and

sheath materials are enormous. Having decided on the conductor size and the number of cores it is important to choose

the insulation and sheath materials most suitable for the task. The retracted length of the spiral can be made to your

requirements up to 5m.

Although once popular, PVC is now giving way to polyurethane as a sheathing material which has a much better

memory. Rubber is still popular with hytrel, used for the highest performance cables. The sizes and types shown on the

page opposite are a small selection of the spiral cables offered. There are many other sheathing, insulation materials and

voltage ratings as well as screened versions available. Please call with your exact requirement.

These cables are manufactured to order, to meet your needs precisely. You can specify tail lengths (the straights bits at

either end). The standard length is at least 150mm and they can be supplied in line (straight) or at right angles to the coil.

Delivery is normally around 14 working days but please check when ordering. Many other core combinations are

available. Please call to discuss your requirements.

Hi-Flex HF-100 & HF-100-C PUR


Abrasion on cables that are constantly flexing is becoming a much more widespread problem. To overcome this, FSC has

introduced the HF-100 range of polyurethane sheathed cables which will outlast conventional PVC sheathing.

The low friction polyurethane sheath resists wear caused by constant rubbing either in a cable chain or where free

movement brings the cable into contact with part of the machine. Suitable for use in cable chains as well as for free

movement the HF-100 range will provide a long term solution to many regular flexing applications.

Both the screened and unscreened versions use fleece tapes and talcum to enable the core bundle and, where

appropriate, the screening braid to move as the cable flexes. This reduces the stress imposed on the conductors and braid.

Coaxial

Introduction

Advances in the design and performance of coaxial

cables have been significant over the past few

years. As production techniques have evolved

producing triple layer dielectrics to increasingly

precise tolerances the performance has enabled

phenomenal data transmission rates to be achieved.

FSC cover all of the popular types from the

traditional RG military style to the widely used

commercial types such as WF100 Satellite and the

latest corrugated and braided varieties for mobile

and satellite communications.

You can be confident if you have a specific coaxial

need we can cross reference it and with massive

stocks, your cable may be with you on our standard

next working day delivery service.

Originally developed for the American military the range of RG cables now has a wider use within the commercial

sectors. Most of the RG cables have been modified from the original military specification to increase their commercial

success. In some cases this is just a change to jacket or dielectric materials, in other cases its more fundamental,

changing braids and conductors. We are happy to provide full data sheets on the constructions of the cable we offer.

The most popular types are also kept in stock in both armoured and duct grade. For other types, armoured, coloured or

duct grade versions can be easily supplied often in quantities as low as 100m.

URM

URM Coaxial

The URM (Uni Radio-Metric) BS 2316 cables listed cover the majority of high frequency data and signal transmission

requirements. Other types can be supplied on request, as can armoured, duct grade or alternative sheath colours.

URM 70 is widely used for security applications connecting CCTV equipment where the stranded centre conductor is

less likely to break than the RG 59 type. This may be important where the camera pans and tilts. Other URM cables are

available to order.

Antennax Feeder Cables

Antennax Feeder Coax

Antennax ultra-low loss microwave cables are the ideal choice for LMR (Land Mobile Radio) communications, the

interconnection of transceivers, satellite & base stations.

Specifically designed to offer high performance across the bandwidth spectrum and sweep tested up to 5.8GHz they

offer a real advantage over traditional corrugated cables. The double-sided bonded and flexible braided design allows

Antennax cables to be used throughout the installation, removing the need for jumper cables which are traditionally

used to connect corrugated coax cables. With faster termination and reduced risk of kinking, installations can be

completed quicker with cost savings on materials and labour.

Typical applications for Antennax cables include LMR, mobile phone transmitters, broadband services, satellite antennas,

marine satellite systems, Wi-Fi, military, traffic control and terrestrial microwave.

The Antennax LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) versions have been tested to European flame retardant safety standards

and are widely used in the offshore industry for airborne broadband, satellite TV and point to point communications.

These cables are ideal where ultra-low loss and a superior performance is required replacing traditional corrugated coax

and “RG” types such as RG58, RG8, RG213, RG223 and RG214.

If you are looking for a great alternative to Times Microwave LMR ® cables or Commscope ® , Andrew ® , CNT ® , try

Antennax, exclusively available from FSC.

Introduction

Based on the British Telecom (BT) designs for

telephone cables the CW range covers all common

copper applications.

Internal cables in PVC or Low Smoke Halogen Free

(LSHF) versions are stocked from 2-100 pairs. Whilst

cables to be run outdoors either through ducts or

for direct burial are stocked alongside drop wire for

running between poles and buildings.

Most of the range is stocked on bulk drums and can

be cut to length to reduce wastage and save you

money.

Originally developed for use on transport systems these cables have PVC insulation and a heavy black flame retardant

LSHF outer sheath. Due to the PVC insulation, we do not regard them as safe to use in high risk areas, however, they are

ideal for running in low rise buildings and externally when the alternative would be to joint the cable.

They also have a bonded heavy aluminium foil moisture barrier which can be earthed and used as a screen.

Introduction

The applications for power cables are immense. At

FSC we’ve built a stock of the most popular sizes

for low voltage power requirements. The two most

popular British types are BS5467, a PVC sheathed

armoured cable and its LSHF cousin BS6724. We

primarily stock Prysmian Draka, British made BASEC

approved, armoured cables.

The unarmoured German specification NYY power

cables are ideal when the cable is already protected

or doesn’t need protecting for example when it’s

used for low voltage or DC circuits. Alongside it

are the German LSHF range of N2XH unarmoured

power cables.

Safe-T-Shield 154

Safe-T-Shield is a Low Smoke Halogen Free (LSHF)

cable that is both lighter and quicker to install

than conventional armoured cables. It is ideal

for installations in partitions or stud work where

accidental puncture by a screw or nail could result

in electric shock. The heavy bonded Aluminium foil

safely earths the fault to the CPC.

N2XH

N2XH XLPE/LSHF Unarmoured Power – 0.6/1kV

N2XH is an unarmoured, Low Smoke Halogen Free (LSHF) power cable. Originating from Germany, it is now widely used

in much of Europe as a simple, easy to install 0.6/1kV power or control cable. It is the Low Smoke Zero Halogen and

flame-retardant version of NYY with solid conductors up to 16mm 2 and stranded or shaped conductors in larger sizes. In

applications where an armour is not needed, e.g. where the cable is not likely to suffer mechanical damage the weight

saving over armoured cable makes it ideal for indoor applications.

Safe-T-Shield

Safe-T-Shield

Safe-T-Shield Low Smoke Halogen Free (LSHF) cable offers substantial advantages over conventional wiring methods.

It is ideal for fixed wiring in hospitals, airports, computer rooms and other sensitive environments. The high level of

screening ensures substantially reduced levels of electromagnetic interference (EMI) making it the right choice where

electromagnetic capability (EMC) is a priority.

Safe-T-Shield is manufactured and tested to the performance criteria of BS 8436. Because it is faster to install and lighter

than small armoured cables or conduit, cost savings of up to 40% can be achieved. Ideal for use behind partitions or in

stud work walls. If the cable is pierced or accidentally cut for example by a screw or nail the aluminium screen and CPC

minimise the chance of personal injury.

This cable is an alternative to Multi-Plus, Guardian & Afumex LSX.

Rubber & Crane

Introduction

Where cables are exposed to the elements

or operating in harsh conditions, synthetic rubbers

can offer huge advantages. Neoprene or PCP is

now widely used as a sheathing material; it retains

flexibility over a wide temperature range and

has excellent abrasion resistance. Often used for

applications outdoors where water and weather

resistance is important, Neoprene offers many

advantages over PVC or other synthetic rubbers.

Crane, festoon and trailing cables are designed for

flexibility and durability and are unaffected by many

oils. FSC stock the popular sizes with others on

quick delivery times.

H07RN-F

H07RN-F Single & Multicores

The much heavier duty brother of H05RR-F these cables are 450/750V rated. Used extensively for trailing and flexible

supply leads in either single or multicore versions, these rubber cables remain flexible even at sub-zero temperatures.

H07RN-F uses neoprene (PCP) for its sheath. The improved abrasion resistance and the ability to withstand many oils and

chemicals make the neoprene sheathed cables suitable for the most arduous conditions.

Applications include portable saws, grinders, welders, pumps, transformers, as temporary lighting cable and feed cable to

heavy mobile equipment. Single cores and large multicores are often used as distribution cables from mobile generators.

Flat PVC Cables

Flat PVC cables offer good low-temperature durability, flexing to -15ºC. Their relatively light weight increases the options

available to designers as does the tight bending radius of 10 x the thickness of the cable. Used mainly on moving and

lifting equipment in a wide variety of applications. These cables are not suitable for use in elevators.

High Temperature

Introduction

High temperature or heat resistant cables are

stocked up to 750°C. The most popular range use

silicone as an insulating material and as a sheath on

the multicore versions. With an operating window

between -50°C to +180°C silicone is an extremely

flexible material. Stocked up to 185mm² in single

core and 25mm² in multicore they may well be the

solution to your temperature related needs.

Thermocouples or compensating & extension cables

are used for temperature measurement. If you need

single or multipair, screened or unscreened, solid or

stranded, call us for a solution.

Silicone SiF, SiF-GL, SiD Single Cores

Silicone insulated conductors offer you an economical solution to many temperature related wiring problems. Capable

of working at extremes as far apart as -50°C right up to +180°C, silicone insulated cables have grown substantially in

popularity. Flexibility is retained even at very low temperatures where conventional rubber or PVC cable would become

brittle and crack.

At high temperatures, applications include heating elements, lighting, manufacturing and food processing and for

control circuits where heat is involved. At low temperatures silicone insulated cables are used in cold stores and

refrigeration plants for lighting, portable equipment and motor feeds.

Silicone insulated and sheathed multicore cables offer electrical engineers and specifiers a superb range of options.

Ideally suited to high or low temperature applications, these cables will work between -50°C and +180°C. When

exposed to fire they produce minimal smoke or fumes.

Silicone is a relatively soft material and is easily cut, a tougher version EWKF is available to special order, otherwise

suitable protection should be allowed for. Options include a galvanised steel wire braid for mechanical protection or a

tinned copper wire braid for screening against EMI.

Applications within the industry include plastic forming and moulding, packaging, food processing, refrigeration,

furnaces and lighting. Also used within spa and sauna facilities and domestic heating and cooking equipment.

PTFE Single Cores

PTFE Single Cores BS 3G 210

PTFE is a remarkable material. It is unaffected by most oils, fuels and fluids. The high-temperature range makes it

resistant to damage from heat sources such as soldering irons or components.

These cables are manufactured to BS 3G 210 and operate up to +200°C or +250°C short term with silver plated copper

conductors. Nickel plated conductor versions to work up to +260°C are available to special order. Other standards

available include American Mil, VDE, DIN and Lloyds.

Multicore and screened or braid armoured versions can also be manufactured in many sizes and styles.

Please note due to the manufacturing process this cable may be supplied in multiple lengths on a reel. For example,

100m may be made up of two or more lengths. This is common to all manufacturers using the Ram extrusion process.

P-Temp 260

P-Temp 260 cables are designed to operate at conductor temperatures up to +260°C. The PTFE insulation is covered by

a layer of mica that is protected from abrasion or mechanical damage by an impregnated and varnished glass fibre braid.

The cable is also capable of withstanding higher temperatures for short periods. This is a direct alternative to In-Temp

250 that used to be manufactured by BICC.

The fine stranded nickel plated copper conductor provides flexibility during installation and routing with substantially

improved high temperature performance over tinned or plain copper.

Multicore versions can be made to your requirements normally with stainless steel or glass fibre braids. Other types of

PTFE insulated wires are also available with tinned, nickel, or silver plated conductors. Please ask for details.

Thermocouple Cables

171

Thermocouple and Compensating Cables

A thermocouple cable is typically a pair of insulated conductors made from two different metals with the same or similar

properties to the thermocouple probe. They carry the signal from the probe back to the measuring unit. To transmit the

signal there must be a positive (+) and negative (-) conductor. These conductors are often referred to as legs. Two legs

make a pair and you must have a pair for a thermocouple to operate. Multiple pair cables are also used where a number

of sensors or probes in one area link back to a control panel. Cables can be supplied as standard measurement industry

designs or to specific standards including BS 5308, IEC 60092 and EN 50288-7. RTD (PT-100) cables can also be supplied

in three core versions.

Selecting your thermocouple cable:

To choose a suitable cable please view the following sections and the appropriate materials to meet your needs. When you have

chosen your thermocouple cable please email the completed pages or call us with the information and we will provide you with a quote

and lead time.

Bus

Introduction

Prior to bus systems being developed each switch,

sensor, detector or contact needed wiring back to

the process controller via its own pair or cable. Bus

systems changed that, instead of using a dedicated

pair, signals are coded and sent over a common bus

cable which connects all the equipment together

allowing the sensors and detectors to communicate

between each other as well as back to the

controller.

The use of bus technology has expanded into almost

every industry from controlling manufacturing

lines through to building automation which has

seen a growth in proprietary systems aimed at

specific applications. Each system has its own cable

specifically designed to optimise efficiency and

speed allowing us to measure, detect and control

almost anything and everything!

DeviceNet

Designed for use on Allen Bradley DeviceNet systems, the ‘thick’ cable construction incorporates a

power and data pair for backbone wiring. ‘Thin’ cables are designed to connect sensors, actuators

and switches to the DeviceNet backbone (thick cable) on the Allen Bradley DeviceNet system.

Similar in construction to the backbone cable, the ‘thin’ cable incorporates a power and data pair.

Several sheathing options are available for different installation environments. These cables are also

referred to as DeviceNet Trunk and Drop cables.

Marine & Offshore

Introduction

The technology used in marine and offshore

applications is advancing at an incredible rate and

the need for cables to link equipment or systems to

enable reliable communications is rapidly increasing.

Until recently the availability of products with the

relevant approvals has often caused problems,

however, FSC are pleased to have built a range of

products tested and approved by DNV-GL and ABS.

The increase in the amount of data transmitted

around a vessel has led to more sophisticated and

higher performance cable being routinely specified.

That’s why we are constantly increasing our stock to

meet your requirements.

Construction focuses on performance in difficult

operating conditions with fire retardant and Low

Smoke Halogen Free (LSHF) materials being central.

MUD resistant sheaths are also an option where

there is a risk of contamination from hydrocarbons

on drilling rigs etc.

LAN/Structured Wiring

Cat 5E, Cat 6 & Cat 6A LAN Cables

LAN cables for marine applications are often installed in more hostile environments than conventional land-based cables,

that’s why the FSC range of structured wiring has been engineered to perform to the relevant standards even in some of

the most arduous conditions. Vibration, solvents, pollutants, gases and climatic changes can all reduce a cables ability to

carry data at the required rates.

Cat 5E, Cat 6 and Cat 6A are used for traditional data transfer monitoring systems, CCTV and video distribution as well

as Wi-Fi and telephony. Along with a range of approvals for marine applications, the cables’ also feature various levels of

screening.

Introduction

Despite the phenomenal range of specialist cables

available on the market today a significant amount

of our business still comes from cables designed to

meet the customers exact requirements. It makes

a lot of sense to buy a cable that fits your needs

perfectly rather than run several cables that almost

do what you want.

Some of the cables that customers need are

composites using a variety of existing cables within

a single outer jacket for example combining coaxial

cables with power and signal cables to run up

camera masts. Or customers wanting multicore

versions of a single core cable that have very precise

electrical characteristics for monitoring. Others need

cables combining different elements for example

nylon tubes for pneumatic equipment alongside

multiple conductors and specialist grade sheaths

to protect against environmental challenges and

chemicals.

SPECIAL MANUFACTURE

206

Special Manufacture

Custom-made and Composite Cables

You specify, we supply – with quantities as low as 100 metres in some cases. The options outlined

on these pages are the main variations and can be combined in any way to meet your particular

specifications. This can be as basic as a special colour code or jacket colour, right through to cables

containing mixed core sizes or elements with various levels of screening or armouring. Talk to us

about cost-effective solutions for applications that are not mentioned here. Also, see the next

page for things to consider when specifying or designing a cable.

Outdoor and Duct Grade Sheaths

In situations where the cable runs outside or through ducts polyethylene sheathing is the ideal

solution. This material is tough, water-resistant and has natural low friction, making it easy to pull

through ducts. It is also ideal for clipping to the outside of buildings offering good resistance to

sunlight.

Two types of polyethylene are commonly used, Low Density (LDPE) and High Density (HDPE). LDPE

offers reasonable flexibility and mechanical protection. It is particularly suited to small data cables,

while HDPE is much stiffer and is normally used for larger cables where no flexibility is required.

Even quantities as low as 100m can be oversheathed, which allows you to use the same basic

cable throughout an installation but with the added protection needed.

Special Colours

Many cables can be supplied in a range of jacket colours. Existing cables can be coloured by

oversheathing to match an existing colour scheme or for identifying circuits, for example alarm or

data wiring. Talk to us about the options available.

Braiding

For added protection cables can be braided with a galvanised steel wire braid (GSWB) stainless

steel or heavy tinned copper wire. It is then over sheathed in a material of your choice. Braiding

maintains a degree of flexibility whilst offering mechanical protection or electrical screening. This

may be important during installation or if the equipment needs to be moved for maintenance or is

subject to vibration.

Armouring

Armouring is best suited for fixed installations and particularly direct burial either galvanised steel

wire (SWA) or aluminium armour can be applied. Both types of protection are then sheathed with

either an exterior grade PVC or polyethylene. Low Smoke Halogen Free sheaths for installations

where fire safety is critical are also available. Standard stock cables can be braided or armoured for


Custom Made Leads & Assemblies

For most jobs time is money and you cannot afford to make a mistake. To reduce installation time

and cost many system manufacturers are now operating a plug and play design allowing the

installer to simply plug pre-manufactured leads into modules for right first time termination.

To meet these growing demands we are able to supply many of the coax, data and

instrumentation cables listed in this book as pre-terminated leads to save you time and money. All

we need to know is the length and the connector type you require - we will do the rest.

Printed Sheaths

Cables can be printed with your company name, telephone number or an identification code such

as a batch or location number.

Cable Considerations

Here are a few points to think about when designing your custom cable. But don’t forget we are here to help and with

many years experience there isn’t a lot we haven’t come across so we can help you avoid a lot of pitfalls and suggest the

most effective solution.

Choosing the core size and conductor type is the first important step ensuring that you take into account the current

carrying capacity required, volts drop and resistance of the material. Is the cable going to be flexed either during installation

or once installed?

Do you require different elements within the cable, i.e. coax, data, power, signal, optical fibre or pneumatic

tubes to name just a few?

This can save time in installation and offer better protection to the components in the cable. It may also result in a neater job.

Does the cable need to deal with any specific climatic conditions, i.e. heat, cold, sunlight, sea or freshwater?

If the cable is only for temporary installations this may not be so relevant but most installations require a cable to last for

years so it’s worth getting it right in the first place.

Will the cable be used in an application where third party standards must be met, i.e. Low Smoke Halogen Free,

marine approvals or national approvals?

Testing can also be important but fire tests in particular can be expensive.

What lengths do you need it supplied in and what lengths will the cable be used in, what is the total quantity

you need and what type of reels or boxes do you want it packed in?

This can be very important in reducing wastage or making the cable easy to handle or install.

Are there likely to be any solvents, oils or contaminants that the cable will come in contact with?

Some jacket materials are resistant to oils, acids and waste but still retain flexibility others will breakdown or age

permanently if contaminated.

What type of mechanical protection is needed?

This may vary from a light PVC jacket to a heavy steel wire armour. Braids can give good protection whilst maintaining

flexibility.

Is the cable likely to emit or be affected by Electromagnetic Interference?

If this is the case screens, foils, braids or lapped screens may be necessary.

What voltage is the cable going to carry, is it AC or DC?

Will the cable run next to any other cables carrying different voltages?

Are there any restrictions on overall diameters?

This may affect glanding, connectors or the containment used.

Do you need to match the colour of the jacket or outer sheath to suit other equipment?

If so, you could use a different colour to identify particular circuits.

The number of strands according to IEC/BS EN 60228 (replacing the old BS 6360) shown in classes 1 & 2 is obligatory.

Stranding shown in classes 5 & 6 gives the maximum strand diameters and may have fewer strands provided the conductor does not exceed the

resistance figures shown. In either case, the standard gives the maximum resistance in ohms/km that is permissible for non-tinned conductors.

*AWG sizes are approximate and for information only. Please contact us for exact sizing.
