In excess of 12,000 metres of Prysmian’s FP PLUS enhanced fire resistant cable was specified for the fire alarm systems in the significant refurbishment of the Queensway and Kingsway tunnels in Liverpool together with the iconic art deco ventilation stations.
Stuart Pinder, Project Officer at Merseytravel explained: “Under current BS 5839-1, an ‘enhanced’ fire resistant cable was required and so Prysmian FP PLUS was specified, installed and commissioned. BS 5839-1 is a code of practice for design, installation, commissioning and maintenance of systems in non-domestic premises and is the code used by designers, installers and building owners.”
Prysmian’s FP range is the original, easy to install and fully compliant fire resistant cable range, approved by engineers, installers and regulators. In the unfortunate event of fire, Prysmian’s ‘standard’ and ‘enhanced’ cables retain vital circuit integrity which allows firefighters time to manage the fire and gives an increased chance of evacuating the building safely.
