6491B / H07Z R Low Smoke Zero Halogen Power Cable Heat Resistant Wire

The "Low Smoke" element of LSZH cables

According to Part B of The Building Regulations, a leading planning and building regulations resource for England and Wales:

"The primary danger associated with fire in its early stages is not flame but the smoke and noxious gases produced by the fire. They cause most of the casualties and may also obscure the way to escape routes and exits. Measures designed to provide safe means of escape must therefore provide appropriate arrangements to limit the rapid spread of smoke and fumes."

Burning PVC has been found in tests to reduce visibility in the surrounding area by as much as 50% within 10 minutes. After 30 minutes, visibility can be reduced by as 90% making it unnecessarily challenging to escape the area.
