Thermocouples compensation cables and measurement cables, halogen free, with improved behaviour with regard to fire prEN 50XXX

Scope

This draft standard is applicable to: - compensation cables associated with "Nickel-chromium/allied Nickel type K) thermocouples - measurement cables with copper conductors intended for installation in utilities. These cables designated as having "an improved behaviour with regard to fire" shall when submitted to fire, present a reduced corrosion degree a minimum emission of smoke and a fire retardance ability. This document gives the characteristics of the components, the tests allowing their verification together with tests to be performed on complete cables.
