EN 50399
Evaluates the potential contribution of a cable to the early stages of a fire under direct exposure to a 20.5 kW or 30 kW flame source.
Common test methods for cables under fire conditions — Heat release and smoke production measurement on cables during flame spread test — Test apparatus, procedures, results
This test evaluates the potential contribution of a cable to the early stages of development of a fire, under direct exposure to a 20.5 kW and 30 kW flame source. The test is relevant for the classes B2ca, Cca and Dca for 20.5 kW, and B1ca for 30 kW.
EN 50399 was based on IEC 60332-3 with the addition of heat release measurement and a modified air inlet system.
Sample dimensions, quantities, mounting, substrate and conditioning requirements for this test are confirmed with you before testing begins. Contact our technical team for the sample requirements for your product.
