Nye brannkrav til kabler i Europa - Byggevareforordningen - CPR/Construction Products Regulation Gjeldende og kommende brannkrav til faste kabelinstallasjoner i bygninger og byggverk på land Elsikkerhetskonferansen 2015 – Nye brannkrav til kabler i Europa under CPR 26.11.2015 Europacble-Norge TF-CPR NEK NK20 Ivar Granheim, Nexans Norway AS 1 Cables – Fire requirements Dagens situasjon: – Mange nasjonale test metoder • I hovedsak basert på IEC 60332-1-2/flame spread /flammehemmet and IEC 603323/fire spread/brannspredning • IEC 60331-serien for fire resistance/funksjonsdyktig/brannsikker/brannmotstand – De fleste land har et minimumskrav til flammehemming • Norge: IEC 60332-1-2/NEK400 og max 50 MJ/m kabelinstallasjon i rømningsveier/TEKGuidance 2 Branneffekter fra kabler Bidrar til brannspredning Bidrar til røykutvikling Bidrar med irriterende og korrosive gasser Bidrar med brennende dråper – Alt i varierende grad avhengig av kabeltype / materialvalg og mengde Brann i kabler kan medføre at livsviktig utstyr slutter å virke 3 Kommende krav og testmetoder Produktets bidrag til brannspredning / brannbelastning – Ny test basert på IEC 60332-3/A,B,C,D (EN 50266), som anbefales i noen bygg i dag/NEK400 – Ny testmetode = EN 50399 (strengere mhp. kabelmontasje ved avstand mellom kablene og høyere luftgjennomstrøming, fra: 5000 l/min, til: 8000 l/min. Modifisert til å måle varme- og røykutvikling i tillegg til brannspredning Observasjon av brennende dråper Dagens test = EN 60332-1-2 = CPR Brannklasse Eca 4 Brannklassekravene til kabler iht.

Manufacturers and importers Obligatory CE-marking for all cables for fixed installation in construction, including: Declaration of Performance (DoP/Ytelseserkæring) i landets språk, oppdatert iht. produktversjon Marking/Labelling New obligatory 3rd party certification with continued factory inspections/FPC (ISO 9000, 14000) and product testing for products with higher fire performance;. i.e. Cca, B2ca As above for FPC and initial, witnessed Type testing for all Fire classes including Fire class Dca and Eca, when major changes affect the properties of the cable.

Brannklasse Dca) – hvor det er: • Mange mennesker • Vanskelig å evakuere Kravsamordning mellom Nordiske land diskuteres 18 Technical requirements for cables Electrical properties Mechanical properties – Ageing properties Fire properties Environmental properties (EF/EMF, chemicals/REACH, RoHS, etc.) Handling properties – Due to high risk in fire situations and dangerous contact/current 19 Difference in amount of smoke between a standard (Eca-s3d2a3)- and a Low fire hazard cable (Dca-s2d2a2) 20
