Fire Resistant Power & Control Cables

300/500V Mica+XLPE Insulated, LSZH Sheathed Power Cables (2-4cores)

FFX200 05mRZ1-R ( CU/MGT+XLPE/LSZH 300/500V Class 2)

Application:

The cables are designed for areas where the integrity of the electrical circuit is critical in maintaining power

supply. Applications can be found in emergency lightings, control and power circuits, power stations, fire alarm

systems, underground tunnels, lifts, escalators, and high-rise buildings.
