HUBER+SUHNER is a Swiss based multinational company specialising in the manufacture of speciality cables with enhanced fire safety characteristics and telecommunication products.

The ever increasing demands to improve the fire safety of materials used for insulating and sheathing compounds of electric cables extends beyond the fundamental requirements of flame retardancy.

HUBER+SUHNER recognised these demands and developed RADOX®, a high performance compound with superior fire safety properties.

At HUBER+SUHNER we define our role as more than just a product supplier but more as a solutions partner to our customers to solve their individual requirements. Our experience is drawn from over 30 years of development in materials technology and extends beyond the industry norm.

Research and development remains a key element at HUBER+SUHNER with approximately 7% of revenue re-invested back into product development.

Our RADOX® cable products are manufactured according to a Quality Management System which is certified to ISO 9001 (AS 9001).

RADOX® was developed by HUBER+SUHNER to fill the temperature gap between conventional electrical cable insulation material such as PVC, XLPE + EPR which are rated at 90°C or lower and the more expensive high temperature resistant materials such as Tefzel (ETFE), Teflon (PTFE), and silicon rubbers rated at temperatures of 150°C and above.

Cables insulated and sheathed with RADOX® offer the electrical industry superb mechanical and environmental properties, halogen free with no corrosive by-products of combustion, low smoke and a 125°C continuous temperature rating.

RADOX® is a halogen free polyolefin-copolymer based compound crosslinked by e-beam technology to eliminate melt and flow of the material when subjected to extreme heat such as overload, short circuit or high ambient temperatures.

Due to the higher current carrying capacity per cross sectional area when compared to MIMS, PVC and XLPE designs, RADOX® Power cables can offer significant cost, weight and space savings while still providing a superior level of fire safety.

RADOX® cables are accepted worldwide and are considered as the benchmark for fire performance cabling systems.

Crosslinking of a cable material is the process of bonding together the molecular chains of a thermoplastic compound. Once the material is crosslinked it is heat stabilised and therefore will not melt or flow. Crosslinking may be achieved

through electron beam (e-beam) technology, chemical processes or temperature pressure methods. The chemical and temperature pressure methods are difficult to control and can result in variability in the level of crosslinking. RADOX® is

e-beam crosslinked to achieve exact and uniform crosslinking throughout the length and depth of the material.

What does crosslinking mean?

Fire Survival and Safety CablesProtection of human life and prevention of damage to equipment and buildings in case of fire has become increasingly important to owners, tenants and regulatory authorities.

Safety requirements are becoming more and more stringent for electrical installations particularly in the area of essential services such as fire alarm and sprinkler systems, smoke extraction equipment, evacuation / intercommunication systems, emergency lighting and lifts.

For these services to operate effectively a wiring system capable of supplying power to them for the period they are required to function is imperative.

Various tests have been devised to classify the suitability of cables for this application including IEC 60331 and BS6387, however the AS/NZS 3013 is one of the only standards to address the classification of the entire wiring system including cables, supports fixings etc.

AS/NZS 3013 is a classification system which defines the performance criteria for a wiring system inclusive of all elements forming part of that system i.e. cable joints, tap-offs, supports and fixings.

The classification system is similar to the IP system ratings however the prefix will be ‘WS’ followed by two numerals and a supplementary letter ‘W’. The first numeral will indicate the wiring systems ability to maintain circuit integrity to fire. The second numeral will indicate the wiring systems capability of maintaining electrical integrity when subjected to water spray following a fire.

The classification categories for fire testing are divided into groups based on their cross sectional areas:

GROUP A: 1mm2 to 6mm2 (from 1 to 5 cores)

GROUP B: 10mm2 to 630mm2 (from 1 to 5 cores)

GROUP C: Other cables with a cross sectional area less than 1mm2 of having more than 5 cores

For the classification of mechanical ratings a series of tests are conducted on cables with different cross sectional areas. The same rating may be assigned to cables having the same construction comprising more conductors with the same cross section, or larger conductors with the same number of cores. It can not be applied to cables with a smaller cross section or a lower number of cores than that tested.

IEC 60331 - Fire Test

A 1200mm sample of cable is mounted over a gas burner and energised at its rated voltage. Flames are applied for 3 hours with the temperature at the cable being 750°C and 800°C.

After 3 hours the gas and power are turned off, then a further 12 hours the power is reconnected. To pass the cable must remain operational both during the 3 hour exposure to the flames and when the power is reconnected after 12 hours.

RADOX® FR Cables meet and exceed the requirements of IEC 60331.

BS 6387 - Fire and Mechanical Tests

BS 6387 defines the performance of electric cables when subjected to fire conditions including fire with water spray and fire with mechanical shock. Depending on the level achieved a characteristic letter is assigned according to the following categories:

Fire Test Category A: 650°C for 3 hrs Category B: 750°C for 3 hrs Category C: 950°C for 3 hrs Category S: 950°C for 20 min

Fire with Mechanical Shock Category X: 650°C for 15 min + mechanical shock Category Y: 750°C for 15 min + mechanical shock Category Z: 950°C for 15 min + mechanical shock

Fire with Water Spray Category W: 650°C for 15 min then 650°C with water spray for a further 15 min

RADOX® FR Cables are certified to categories C, W and Z being the highest rating.

Construction of RADOX® FR Cables and Performance when Subjected to Fire

The Propagation of Fire

In the event of a fire with flames directly affecting the FR cable, the sheath will release water vapour as the temperature elevates. As this water vapour is formed it significantly retards the cables ability to burn, however, should the fire continue as in a large fire, the sheath will eventually degrade to an ash. The primary RADOX®

insulation then with elevated temperature also releases water vapour until it, in turn degrades. Irrespective of the degradation of sheath and insulation the flame barrier is designed to interact with the ash and maintain the cables circuit integrity at the nominated voltage at temperatures over 1000°C.

Fire can spread rapidly to other areas in a building via the large volumes of cables installed in riser shafts and ceiling spaces. It is for this reason that it is important to install highly flame retardant cables.

There are several tests for determining the flame propagation characteristics of cables, however as AS1600.5.1 is a good representation of a real fire situation detailing methods for assessing the flame retardance of bunched cables having densities of combustible material.

AS1660.5.1 (IEC 60332-3)

AS1660.5.1 details 3 test categories determined by the amount of combustible material contained in a one metre sample of bunched cable.

Category A: 7 litres of combustible material per metre exposed to a flame for 40 minutes.

Category B: 3.5 litres of combustible material per metre exposed to a flame for 40 minutes.

Category C: 1.5 litres of combustible material per metre exposed to a flame for 20 minutes.

The cable specimens are placed vertically next to each other on a vertical ladder tray and are then exposed to the flame of a ribbon burner for the appropriate time.

After the removal of the flame, the cable specimens must be wiped clean and the charred or affected portion should not have reached a height exceeding 2.5 metres.

RADOX® FR and R125 Cables meet the requirements of AS1660.5.1 for Categories A, B and C.

Toxic and Corrosive Gases

AS1660.5.4 (IEC 60754-1) Acid Gas Emission Test

19

Toxicity of combustion products is an extremely involved subject. The concentrations of various gases considered fatal to humans within 30 minutes have been documented, however little is known about the effect of lower concentrations of combinations of these gases. It is therefore important to eliminate the most toxic of these (most commonly the halogens) and to minimise the other less toxic gases such as carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide, both of which are also responsible for a great number of fatalities.

As well as being highly toxic, halogens combine with hydrogen to form acid gases which can cause serious damage to electronic equipment even in small scale fires which are extinguished quickly. When combined with water these halide gases form concentrated acid solutions which cannot only cause serious damage to building structures, but which are extremely irritating to people trying to evacuate.

HCI gas generated by burning PVC combines with water in the eyes, throat, nose and lungs to form hydrochloric acid which contributes significantly to panic, loss of coordination and subsequently in combination with other toxic by-products such as CO, CO2, HCN etc. leads to fatalities.

The following example highlights the quantity of these gases which can be generated - A 10 metre length of cable with 2.86kg of PVC can produce 320 litres of hydrochloric acid with highest possible concentration. This is enough to cover an area of 1400m2.

AS1660.5.4 specifies a method for the determination of the degree of acidity of gases evolved during combustion of cables by measuring pH and conductivity.

The performance requirements of this standard state that the weighted pH value of conductivity should not exceed 10µS/mm.

The pH and conductivity values for RADOX® 125 material are 5.46 and 4.8µS/mm respectively, well within the requirements of the standard.

RADOX® FR and 125 cables have zero halogen content, produce no corrosive by-products of combustion and due to the high content of inorganic fillers (50% by volume) have a very low fuel element.

Smoke Generation

AS 1660.5.2 (IEC 61034-2) 3m3 Smoke Obstruction Test

Smoke is a major obstacle to the safe evacuation of people during fire and also hinders the fire fighting efforts. Smoke extraction equipment improves the situation, however the use of low smoke products is a very important step in reducing the panic and inevitable disorientation caused by the presence of dense smoke generated by conventional insulation and sheathing materials.

Most cables are insulated with PVC and the following quote emphasises the dangers associated with such materials.

“A 1 metre length of burning cable containing around 0.85kg of PVC will result in complete obscuration in a room of 1000m3 within 5 minutes”.

RADOX® cables generate very little smoke, less than 1/10th than PVC.

The 3m3 test measures the generation of smoke from electric cables during fire.

An enclosure measuring 3m x 3m x 3m is constructed with two transparent windows installed on opposite sides.

A light beam emitted from a window is projected across the enclosure to a photocell connected to a recorder at the opposite window. The recorder is adjusted to register from 0% for complete obscuration to 100% luminous transmission.

A 1m cable specimen is placed in the centre of the enclosure and then subjected to fire. The minimum light transmission is recorded.

RADOX® cables have an average minimum light transmission value greater than 84% for the range of cables tested. Acceptance criterion given in AS 1660.5.2 is a minimum light transmission value greater than 60%.

Current Ratings

Correction for Variation in Ambient and Operating Temperatures

Current ratings detailed on page 23 have been calculated in accordance with the International Electrotechnical Commission’s publication IEC 60287 “Calculation of the continuous current rating of cables (100% load factor)” and are based on the following assumptions.

i) Conductor temperature 105°C (for conductors ≤ 2.5mm2 90°C) ii) Ambient air temperature 40°C iii) Ambient soil temperature 25°C iv) Soil thermal resistivity 1.2Km/Wv) Depth of laying 0.5m to centre of duct / cable or group of ducts / cables Reference should be made to AS3008.1 for derating factors.

21

There are occasions when cables may be operated in ambient temperatures either above or below 40°C in which case the current rating of the cable will be affected.

The following correction factors can be used to calculate the current rating at any given ambient temperature:

Correction for Different Cable Operating Temperatures There may be instances when a cable will be carrying less than it’s rated current (for example where there are long cable runs and voltage drop is the primary consideration) in this case it may be necessary to calculate the actual operating temperature so that the correct values for voltage drop are used.

The estimated operating temperature at a given current can be calculated using the following formula:

θ0 = (θR - θA) ( I0 )2 + θA

IR

The estimated current rating for other operating temperatures can be calculated using the following formula:

I0 = IR √ θ0 - θA

θR - θA

WHERE

I0 = Operating current in amperes

IR = Current ratings as given in table page 23

θR = Operating temperature of cable when carrying IR in degrees Celsius

θA = Ambient air or ground temperature in degrees Celsius

θ0 = Operating temperature when carrying I0 in degrees Celsius

Note: Please contact sales on 1300 786 876 for more accurate calculations

Page 25: FR 2009 Catalogue

22

Voltage DropSAA wiring rules AS 3000 requires that the voltage drop between the consumers terminals and any point of the installation shall not exceed 5% of the supply voltage at the consumers terminals.

Voltage drop (mV/A.m) values are given on page 24. These values are given at both the load power factor which results in the maximum voltage drop and at 0.8 power factor.

Actual voltage drop can be calculated as follows:

Vd = L x I x Vc

1000

WHERE

Vd = Actual voltage drop in volts

L = Route length of circuit

Vc = mV/A.m values given in the tables

I = Current to be carried by the cable

Short CircuitThe generalised form of the adiabatic temperature rise equation which is applicable to any starting temperature is as follows:

I2t = k2s2

The fault current rating for a given duration can be calculated using the following formula:

I = ks

√ tWHERE

t = Duration in seconds (maximum 5 seconds)

s = Nominal cross section of conductor in mm2

I = Value of fault current in amps

k = A factor taking account of the resistivity, temperature coefficient and heat capacity of the conductor material and the appropriate initial and final temperatures
