Expert solutions in fire safety are one of the most critical needs in modern buildings and industrial facilities. Unfortunately, electrical systems are among the areas with the highest risk of fire. For this reason, the cables used must not only ensure the transmission of power but also have special features to protect life and property in case of a fire. Leading brands in the sector like 2M Kablo and Prysmian stand out with their expertise and innovative products in this field.
In this blog post, we will examine why fire safety is so vital, the special cable solutions offered by these two brands, and how Deltatema acts as a solution partner in this area.
Why Are Fire-Resistant Cables Vitally Important?
In a fire situation, the correct selection of electrical cables can significantly affect the magnitude of the disaster. When standard cables burn, they emit toxic and corrosive gases, which threaten human health and damage electronic equipment. However, fire-resistant cables are specifically designed to minimize these risks.
- Personal Safety: These cables minimize the emission of toxic gases and smoke during a fire, which facilitates evacuation processes.
- Functional Integrity: Critical systems (emergency lighting, smoke extraction fans, fire alarm systems) continue to operate for a certain period during a fire, which provides time for intervention and evacuation.
- Equipment Protection: By preventing the formation of corrosive gases, they protect other electronic equipment from being damaged after a fire.
These features have become mandatory, especially in places like hospitals, schools, tunnels, airports, and high-rise buildings.
