23、 shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by September 2014, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by September 2014. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of
24、this document may be the subject of patent rights. CEN and/or CENELEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential r
25、equirements of (EU) N305/2011. CEN, CENELEC and EOTA committees preparing technical specifications, which contain performance requirements against reaction to fire tests, should make reference to the reaction to fire classification given in this European Standard and not refer directly to any specif
26、ic fire test method. This document has been prepared in cooperation with CLC/TC 20 “Electric cables”, CLC/TC 46X “Communication cables” and CLC/TC 86A “Optical fibre cables”. EN 13501 Fire classification of construction products and building elements consists of the following parts: Part 1: Classifi
27、cation using data from reaction to fire tests; Part 2: Classification using data from fire resistance tests, excluding ventilation services; Part 3: Classification using data from fire resistance tests on products and elements used in building service installations: fire resisting ducts and fire dam
28、pers; Part 4: Classification using data from fire resistance tests on components of smoke control systems; Part 5: Classification using data from external fire exposure to roofs tests; Part 6: Classification using data from reaction to fire tests on electric cables. According to the CEN-CENELEC Inte
29、rnal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, I

DINEN 13501-6:2014-07EN 13501-6:2014(E)5 Introduction The aim of this European Standard is to define a harmonized proced
31、ure for the classification of reaction to fire of electric cables. This classification is based on the test procedures listed in Clause 5. This European Standard has been prepared in support of the second essential requirement in the EC Construction Products Regulation (EU) N305/2011 and as detailed
32、 in the Interpretative Document Number 2: Safety in case of fire (OJ C62 Vol. 37). Background information on the Commission Decision regarding the classification of the reaction to fire performance of electric cables is given in Annex B. There is a procedure by which certain products can be assigned
33、 a particular fire classification without the need for testing. Such products have well established reaction to fire performance and have been agreed by the Standing Committee on Construction. Agreements relating to such products which may be classified without further testing (CWFT) are published i
34、n the Official Journal of the EC and are listed on the Nando-CPD database on the EC website (http:/europa.eu.int/comm/enterprise/construction). Part 1 of this European Standard covers classification resulting from reaction to fire tests for products other than electric cables. Parts 2, 3 and 4 of th
35、is European Standard are concerned with classification resulting from fire resistance tests. Part 5 covers classification resulting from tests for external fire exposure to roofs. DINEN 13501-6:2014-07EN 13501-6:2014 (E) 6 1 Scope This European Standard provides the reaction to fire classification p
36、rocedure for electric cables. NOTE For the purpose of this European Standard the term “electric cables” covers all power, control and communication cables, including optical fibre cables. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document
