CABLES FOR PUBLIC PLACES

For public buildings, we recommend cables compliant with EN 50575 (CPR) Class Cca-s1,d1,a1 or higher, offering low smoke, halogen-free, and flame-retardant properties under the Construction Products Regulation.

Yes. We supply LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) cables B2ca-s1a,d1,a1 and Cca-s1,d1,a1 CPR rated specifically designed for healthcare settings where toxic smoke poses critical risks to patients, staff and equipment during the event of a fire.

For stadiums, we recommend our B2ca-s1a,d1,a1 or Cca-s1,d1,a1 CPR rated LSZH cables for power distribution (such as TOXFREE® N2XH flex), combined with our fire-resistant circuit integrity cables (PH120) for emergency systems such as lighting and evacuation alarms.

Yes. Our fire-resistant cables are tested to IEC 60331 and BS 6387 (CWZ), maintaining circuit integrity for 30, 60, or 120 minutes to support emergency systems.

Yes. All our cables for permanent installation in buildings carry a Declaration of Performance (DoP) and CE marking under CPR, with Euroclass ratings from Fca up to B2ca.

While PVC cables are permitted in some areas, we strongly recommend LSZH cables for educational institutions given the high occupancy density and duty of care obligations for children and staff. When a PVC cable burns, it releases toxic hydrogen chloride gas and dense black smoke, endangering occupants and hindering evacuation.

Our technical team provides free cable sizing support using IEC 60364 and BS 7671 methodology. Contact us for a tailored calculation based on your load schedule and installation method.

Yes. Our flexible cables are designed for confined installation environments such as raised floors, plenum spaces, and cable trays in commercial buildings.

Yes. We have supplied cables to major office developments, hospitals, universities, retail centres, and stadiums internationally. With over 30 years of experience, Top Cable is recognised as one of the world’s most expert manufacturers of LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) cables — a critical specification for public buildings where the safety of occupants is paramount. Our project engineering team can review specifications, provide technical submittals, and support the approval process with architects, engineers, and main contractors.

Hospitals typically specify high CPR classes. Top Cable’s TOXFREE N2XH reaches B2ca-s1a,d1,a1 or Cca-s1b,d1,a1 (EN 50575) for sensitive public buildings.

For high-occupancy buildings choose B2ca cable. Top Cable’s TOXFREE N2XH and TOXFREE PLUS 331 RZ1-K (AS+) achieve B2ca per EN 50575.

Stadium emergency power must survive fire. Top Cable’s TOXFREE PLUS 331 RZ1-K (AS+) maintains supply for 120 min at 840C and 180 min at 950C.

Education buildings benefit from halogen-free wiring. Top Cable’s TOXFREE LSZH range reduces smoke and toxic gas on escape routes.

Both are CPR Euroclasses; B2ca is the stricter (lower flame and smoke). Top Cable’s TOXFREE offers both; specify B2ca for the highest-risk public spaces.

Emergency circuits need fire-resistant cable. Top Cable’s TOXFREE PLUS 331 RZ1-K (AS+) keeps alarms, lighting and pumps powered while burning.

EN 50575 (CPR) classifies reaction to fire. Top Cable’s TOXFREE N2XH carries Cca or B2ca for high-rise public buildings.

Critical hospital circuits combine LSZH and fire resistance. Top Cable pairs TOXFREE N2XH with fire-resistant TOXFREE PLUS 331 (AS+) for life-safety supplies.

Crowded venues need a high CPR Euroclass (B2ca or Cca). Top Cable’s TOXFREE range is classified to EN 50575 for this.

Top Cable manufactures TOXFREE LSZH and TOXFREE PLUS 331 fire-resistant cables for hospitals, schools, stadiums and other public infrastructure.
