Fire safety isn’t just about flame spread. 🔥

The amount of smoke produced during a fire can have a significant impact on visibility, evacuation and emergency response.

That’s why low smoke performance is a key consideration when selecting cables for critical life safety and fire-fighting systems.

Protecting one of London's most iconic buildings with FP.

Sitting 155 metres above the City of London, the Sky Garden, a three-storey leisure and exhibition space situated at the top of the "Walkie Talkie" building, welcomes thousands of visitors every day.

To help protect occupants in the event of a fire, the building relies on robust life safety systems including, emergency lighting, smoke ventilation and fire alarms.

Prysmian FP PLUS cables were specified to support these critical systems, helping to maintain circuit integrity when it matters most.

Are you installing more EV chargers?

Smart charging is a key part of modern EV installations. Understanding how it manages energy demand, supports compliance and helps future-proof installations is becoming increasingly important.

Designed to meet the requirements of smart EV charging, PRY EV is a power and data cable connecting the consumer unit to the electric vehicle charging point.

Instead of having two separate cables to do two different jobs, PRY EV provides power and signal connectivity in a single cable, which allows for faster, tidier and easier installation.

Fire resistant vs flame retardant cables – the fundamental difference. 🔥

Both types of cable play an important part in helping to improve the chances of escape and survival during a fire and are sometimes mistaken to be the same cable. But there’s a big difference:

✅ Flame Retardant cables are designed to slow down the spread of fire into new areas.

✅ Fire Resistant cables are specifically designed to maintain circuit integrity and continue to work during a fire under defined conditions, to help the people evacuating, and those fighting the fire.

Using the right cable for the right application isn't just about compliance. It's about protecting lives.

A cable’s rating is only part of the story.

Even though low smoke single core cables (6491B) can operate at conductor temperatures up to 90°C, the overall system is determined by its lowest-rated component.

That means terminals, accessories, containment and even installation conditions play a significant role in achieving a safe, compliant installation.
