Prysmian Cable's tested secure cables

The dense gas from the cables during the fire can cause disruptions in the evacuation of the crime scene and increase the rate of loss of life in fires. Prysmian Kablo, which stands out with its studies on the European Building Materials Regulation (CPR), emphasizes the importance of the cables used in buildings and projects to be safe against fire.

Prysmian Kablo, which also stands out with its studies on the European Building Materials Regulation (CPR), proves that the fires caused by electrical installations in buildings will be minimized thanks to high-tech cables. Toxic gas that causes loss of life in fires The smoke from the cables during the fire is the most important factor in poisoning and losing people's lives. During the test carried out by Prysmian Cable with simulations, fire-safe cables and PVC cables used in most of the buildings today are placed in two different compartments. As a result of the test in which the smoke rate and burning time of the cables are measured; Prysmian It is seen that the cables produced by Kablo as fire safe extinguish themselves in a short time after burning and the smoke emission is less. This lengthens the time it takes to evacuate the building and allows emergency responders to work in better conditions. On the other hand, the fact that fire-resistant cables continue to function also allows uninterruptible power supplies and fire alarm systems to operate during a fire. Emphasizing their sensitivity on this issue, Prysmian Kablo CEO Erkan Aydoğdu said, "Fire-safe cables must be used in schools, hospitals, shopping malls, cinema and theater halls, metro and road tunnels, airports, mines, factories, information processing centers, hotels, high-rise buildings, mass housing and all structures where panic may occur, which are especially crowded structures."

The whole sector should work together for life safety Prysmian Kablo CEO Erkan Aydoğdu said, "Based on our mission of "We Connect Turkey to Tomorrow", we took part in the wiring of Turkey's important investments. However, as the leading company in the Turkish Cable Industry, we do not only supply cables to projects; at the same time, we are trying to take part in all kinds of studies and projects that will develop our sector. Our efforts to increase the production and use of fire-resistant cables will continue. In this regard, if we act together as the Turkish Cable Industry, we sincerely believe that our country and our sector will see much better days."
