PH30 Fire Rated Cable – 2 Core 1mm White, Sold Per Meter
The PH30 2 Core 1mm White Cable is a fire-rated, safety-critical cable engineered for essential electrical circuits that must remain operational during fire emergencies. With a fire resistance rating of 30 minutes (PH30), this cable is ideal for low-voltage applications in emergency lighting systems, fire alarms, voice evacuation systems, and other life-safety infrastructure.
Key Features
- PH30 Certified: Maintains circuit functionality for at least 30 minutes during fire
- 2 Core, 1mm² Conductors: Suited for low-voltage power and lighting control systems
- Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH): Minimises toxic emissions in case of fire
- White Outer Sheath: Neat, clean finish for surface and concealed installations
- Sold per meter: Flexible ordering based on project needs
Purpose-Built for Safety
This PH30 fire rated cable is constructed with advanced flame-retardant materials that ensure operational integrity for a full 30 minutes under fire conditions. This delay is critical in allowing time for evacuation, alarm signalling, or maintaining emergency lighting functionality. It is fully compliant with industry benchmarks including IEC 60331 and BS EN 50200 standards.
Typical Applications
PH30 2 core fire-resistant cables are widely used in the following systems:
- Emergency lighting control circuits
- Smoke alarms and detectors
- Voice alarm and evacuation systems (PAVA)
- Low-voltage safety-critical installations
- BMS circuits and intercoms
Technical Advantages
The 1mm² twin-core layout is flexible and easy to route in tight conduits or trunking systems. It is compatible with PVC saddles, cleats, and glands, and provides excellent resistance to heat and mechanical stress. Its LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) sheath ensures compliance with South African fire safety regulations and reduces harmful emissions in confined areas.
Reliable for Modern Compliance
PH30-rated cables are increasingly required in commercial and public sector construction projects to meet updated fire safety codes. Installing this cable ensures your project aligns with the latest building regulations, while enhancing overall occupant safety during emergencies.
