Cables with intern'l color coding, low smoke, zero halogen

Hi Steve,

SUNUA contains other products and information you need, so please check it out.

Thanks for replying. We have to replace all of our cables. We have multiple conductor cables. 16 AWG (1, 3 and 4 conductors). With braided shielding. The shielding needs to be copper. Not all of of the single conductor cables have shielding.

20 AWG: (1, 2 and 4 conductors) On the single conductor cables, there is not shielding.

22 AWG: (2 and 3 conductors) both of these cables need copper shielding.

For more low smoke zero halogen lszhinformation, please contact us. We will provide professional answers.

The voltage rating is around VDC.

We still need the international color coding, low smoke and zero halogen characteristics.

Best Regards,
Chris

Hi Chris,
Sorry for the delay, I was checking for cable with the specifications you listed and I wasn’t able to match all the specs but take a look at this list of multiconductor cables and this list of single conductor cables for options, all are low smoke zero halogen in the wire gauge range and number of conductors you listed. Be sure to check the voltage rating and shield material to verify if these will be sufficient for your application.

Contact us to discuss your requirements of pv cable compounds. Our experienced sales team can help you identify the options that best suit your needs.

Low smoke zero halogen - Mike Holt's Forum

I am not familiar with the cable you mentioned but if it is a cable it may fall under Chapter 3-- art. 320- art 399

The biggest problem that I am familiar with is whether or not the cable has had a vertical flame rating. Perhaps there are some cables that are not listed in the NEC that may be compliant based on what Smart stated.

I see nothing in the NEC for that cable and zero halogen does not show up but low smoke does show up in many of the articles from a art. 725 on thru chapter 8

(A) Types CL2P and CL3P. Types CL2P and CL3P plenum
cable shall be listed as being suitable for use in ducts,
plenums, and other space for environmental air and shall
also be listed as having adequate fire-resistant and lowsmoke
producing characteristics.
Informational Note: One method of defining a cable that is
low-smoke producing cable and fire-resistant cable is that
the cable exhibits a maximum peak optical density of 0.50
or less, an average optical density of 0.15 or less, and a
maximum flame spread distance of 1.52 m (5 ft) or less
when tested in accordance with NFPA 262-, Standard
Method of Test for Flame Travel and Smoke of Wires and
Cables for Use in Air-Handling Spaces.
