What is LSZH?
LSZH stands for Low Smoke Zero Halogen.
These cables contain no halogens and produce very low smoke in case of fire.
After the 1987 King’s Cross fire in London, the use of LSZH-sheathed cables became mandatory in all London Underground stations.
The fire caused many casualties due to smoke inhalation and reduced visibility, highlighting the importance of fire-safe cabling in public spaces.
LSZH cables are critical in public and high-occupancy buildings such as corporate headquarters, hospitals, shopping centers, hotels, cinemas, underground metro systems, power plants, and fire control centers.
Their low smoke and halogen-free properties prevent the release of toxic gases, helping to contain fires and enabling people to evacuate safely.
They also help maintain the functionality of fire alarms, ventilation systems, elevators, warning and guidance lights, and doors during a fire.
