Home / Fire resistance rating requirements for fire-resistant cable trays
UL 1257 is a widely recognized testing standard that evaluates fire-resistant cable tray and conduit assemblies. It ensures these components meet specific performance criteria under extreme temperature conditions. This is a test for electric cable systems that are required to maintain circuit integrity, so is therefore written around and is dependent on the cables themselves, but containmen of 90 minutes (the maximum time covered by DIN 4102-12). Where cables pass through shafts, walls, slabs, or enter electrical panels or cabinets, openings shall be tightly sealed with firestopping materials in accordance with design requirements.
