Cable Marking
A means of identifying the manufacturer shall be provided throughout the length of all cables.This may be done by coloured
5
threads, printed tapes, printing or embossing of the outer surface. If coloured threads are used, the colours shall comply with
manufacturers name. The printing or embossing on the outer sheath must include as a minimum the manufacturers name
and voltage grade. 6

These products are common in the manufacture of cables used on oil rigs, oil platforms, ships, etc. With the high risk of fire in
3
these environments, the behaviour of cables is of prime importance.
When most standard cables are subjected to flames, the basic effects are no different to any other products manufactured of 4
similar materials.
5
Generally the following happens:
The flames will gradually spread, smoke and gases will be generated and eventually the cable will breakdown electrically
and be severely damaged or destroyed. The resultant effects of these hazards endanger life and hinder rescue and fire 6
fighting services.
7
The main fire performance requirements are:
Flame Retardancy 8
The ability to slow down the spread of flames along the cable.
9
Low Smoke Emission
The importance of personnel being able to see, in order to evacuate an area, and the fire-fighters having access to get to the
seat of the fire. 10

Suitable for drilling rigs and oil platforms, this cable is designed for fixed wiring in ships, and in mobile and fixed offshore
units such as drilling rigs and oil platforms. This cable is particularly designed for use in areas regularly occupied by people,
such as accommodation facilities, control rooms and computer suites, which assists in reducing smoke and noxious fumes and 8
where vital, sensitive equipment may be damaged by acid forming gases.
