TT CABLE NHXH-J RE/SP FE180/E90 Fire Resistant Power Cable, 4 x 1.5 mm², 500m

The TT CABLE NHXH-J RE/SP FE180/E90 is a high-performance, halogen-free power cable engineered to maintain electrical circuit integrity during fire events. With a 4 x 1.5 mm² configuration, this cable is specifically designed for critical infrastructure where safety and reliability are paramount. Its robust construction ensures that power supply remains uninterrupted for essential systems, even when exposed to direct flames, making it a vital component in modern fire safety engineering.

Advantages

This cable offers exceptional fire resistance, meeting the FE180 standard for insulation integrity and the E90 standard for system functionality. Being halogen-free, it produces minimal smoke and no toxic gases during combustion, which significantly improves visibility and safety for evacuation in public spaces. The orange outer sheath allows for easy identification as a fire-resistant cable, while the solid conductor design ensures stable electrical performance and durability in demanding installation environments.

Suitable for

• Emergency lighting systems in public buildings
• Fire alarm and detection installations
• Smoke extraction and ventilation systems
• Emergency power supply for elevators and safety equipment
• Public infrastructure requiring high fire safety standards

When it may not be suitable

This cable is not intended for use in environments where it will be continuously submerged in water or exposed to harsh chemicals that could degrade the outer sheath. It is also not designed for high-flexibility applications, as the solid conductors are optimized for fixed installations rather than moving parts.

Key specifications

• Conductor cross-section: 1.5 mm²
• Number of conductors: 4
• Fire resistance class: FE180 (insulation integrity)
• System functionality: E90
• Flammability class: Eca
• Cable shape: Hose
• Color: Orange
• Package length: 500 m

How to use

The cable should be installed by qualified professionals in accordance with local electrical regulations and fire safety codes. It is suitable for fixed installation in dry or damp environments, either on, in, or under plaster, as well as in cable ducts or trays. Ensure that the bending radius is respected during installation to prevent damage to the internal conductors and insulation layers. The cable is designed for permanent connection to safety-critical systems where fire protection is mandatory.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the required cross-section for your specific load and voltage drop requirements.
• Ensure the E90 system functionality meets the local building code requirements for your project.
• Confirm that the installation environment is compatible with the cable's fixed-installation design.
• Check the total length required, as this product is supplied in a 500-meter package.

Usage recommendations: Always handle the cable with care during transport and installation to maintain the integrity of the fire-resistant materials. Avoid sharp bends and ensure that all connections are made using appropriate fire-rated junction boxes to maintain the overall system rating.
