Work with the latest criteria in NFPA 262 for accurate assessments of smoke and fire spread. NFPA 262: Standard Method of Test for Flame Travel and Smoke of Wires and Cables for Use in Air-Handling Spaces presents a test procedure to evaluate the potential for fire spread along cables and wires housed in a plenum or other environmental space. Vital for testing labs, the test method measures and records both flame travel distance and optical density of smoke for: Electrical wires and cables that are insulated, jacketed, or both Optical fiber cables for installation in plenums and other spaces used to transport environmental air without being enclosed in raceways The 2015 edition is up-to-date with all referenced codes and standards. Apply the 2015 NFPA 262 to improve fire safety. Annexes include a wealth of helpful information on topics such as smoke and heat release measurements and standard reference cable test. – See more at: http://catalog.nfpa.org/2015-NFPA-262-Standard-Method-of-Test-for-Flame-Travel-and-Smoke-of-Wires-and-Cables-for-Use-in-Air-Handling-Spaces-P1254.aspx#sthash.lwaeaW8S.dpuf
