Cable for Security and Alarm Systems electro base PBA100-RB-LSZH 8 cores, 100 m, LSZH

electro base PBA100-RB-LSZH is an 8-core cable supplied on a 100 m reel and designed specifically for security and alarm systems. The cable features a Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) outer jacket that reduces toxic and corrosive gases and smoke generation in case of fire. It is intended for signal and control wiring between alarm panels, detectors, keypads and access control devices, providing organised multi-core routing for reliable connections and safer installations.

Advantages

The LSZH jacket lowers the risk associated with smoke and halogen fumes, which is important in occupied or enclosed spaces. With eight separate conductors in a single sheath, the cable simplifies routing and reduces the number of individual runs required. Supplied on a 100 m reel, it supports continuous installations without frequent joins, and its construction is suitable for fixed, indoor installation in typical alarm and security system environments.

Suitable for

• Wiring between alarm control panels and wired detectors
• Connections for access control readers and door controllers
• Interfacing keypads, sirens and auxiliary sensors
• Fixed indoor routing in offices, corridors and equipment rooms

Key specifications

• Number of cores: 8 conductors
• Length: 100 meters on a single reel
• Sheath type: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Application: signal and control wiring for security and alarm systems
• Installation type: fixed, indoor use

How to use

Plan the cable path to minimise bends and avoid running parallel to high-voltage power lines where possible. Measure and cut the required length from the 100 m reel, strip the outer LSZH sheath carefully to expose the eight conductors, and strip individual conductor insulation to the required length for termination. Terminate conductors to alarm panels, detectors or access control devices following the wiring diagrams provided by the equipment manufacturer. Use appropriate cable glands, trunking or conduit where the cable passes through walls or enters enclosures to maintain mechanical protection and fire compartmentation.

Usage recommendations

For best long-term performance, avoid sharp bends and excessive pulling tension during installation, maintain separation from mains cabling to reduce interference, and store reels in a dry environment. Verify compatibility with the system’s voltage and signalling requirements before installation and follow local electrical and fire safety regulations.
