Rely on safety when it comes to fire protection

written byDaniel BlömersSpecialist Article

The saying "safety first" is certainly very important in many areas of life. Everyone is talking about different topics: financial, private, professional. One aspect that concerns us all is fire protection. This level of safety in the event of a fire is particularly high in public buildings such as hospitals, care facilities or daycare centers.

This also includes the solar system on the roof: more and more rooftop systems require a higher CPR rating (Construction Product Regulations, EN50757) in order to comply with the European Directive EU305/2011. Solar cables are available in various designs and CPR ratings. Most suppliers offer solar cables with Eca and Dca ratings. However, this is too low for public buildings, where the highest known CPR rating is required: B2ca. Our HIKRA SOL B2ca solar cable meets exactly these requirements!

Background: The European Construction Products Regulation

Since June 10, 2016, all cables and lines installed in a building are subject to the European Construction Products Regulation, or CPR for short. Depending on the fire behavior of these components, they are classified into European fire classes, from low safety requirements and fire class Eca, to very high safety requirements and classification B2ca. The cable industry recommends the use of cables and lines depending on the safety requirements of the building.

Our HIKRA SOL B2ca solar cable is assigned the highest fire class B2ca. For you, that means no risks and the highest level of safety that a cable can offer. In the event of a fire, that means no smoke development (s1), no burning drops/drops (d0), low acidity and low conductivity (a1). Thanks to the particularly high-quality insulating materials used in our HIKRA SOL B2ca solar cable, the expected service life is at least 25 years. No expensive replacement measures are necessary, you reduce system failures and thus secure your system yield.

Don't take any risks when it comes to fire protection and rely on the maximum safety of the HIKRA SOL B2ca.

Safe, reliable, convincing.
