Cable testing for NFPA130

NFPA 130: Standard for Fixed Guideway Transit and passenger Rail Systems.

As the cable flame spread and burning rate of destruction of the length of the combustion smoke density (light penetration) and the burning of hazardous toxic gas escape on the staff of life play a very important influence.

NFPA130 Cable test item and standard: 

FT4/IEEE1202: cable for flame-Propagation testing, the cable damage height is to be less than 1.5m.
NFPA262: the total smoke release and the peak smoke release rate, generating a maximum peak optical density of smoke of 0.5 and a maximum average optical density of smoke of 0.15.
ANSI/UL1685: The cable damage height, the total smoke release and the peak smoke release rate.
IEC 60331-11: Be capable of having 15 minute circuit integrity

NFPA130 Standard requirement 
Detail information see NFPA130 Table 8.4.1Fire test Procedures and performance criteria for materials and assemblies.
