Türk Prysmian Kablo Delivers Reliability and Cost Advantage Through Performance Testing

A pioneer in the energy and telecommunications cable sector, Türk Prysmian Kablo demonstrates through its extensive testing program that its products serve not only technical purposes but also act as critical safety components. Performance tests conducted under conditions close to real-life scenarios show that cables play a vital role during fires and emergencies. 

Critical Role in Fire Safety 

Smoke emitted from cables during a fire is one of the main factors causing poisoning and fatalities. In a simulation test conducted by Prysmian Kablo, two separate compartments were fitted with fire-safe cables and PVC cables commonly used in most buildings today. The test measured smoke emission and burning duration. Results showed that Prysmian’s fire-safe cables self-extinguish shortly after ignition and emit significantly less smoke. This allows more time for building evacuation and enables emergency teams to operate under better conditions. 

Moreover, the continued functionality of fire-resistant cables ensures uninterrupted power supply and the operation of fire alarm systems during a fire. These cables are preferred in critical infrastructures such as hospitals, airports, metro systems, and data centers, reflecting the company’s commitment to sustainability and quality policies. 

Quality and Assurance Through Comprehensive Testing 

Türk Prysmian Kablo conducts mechanical, electrical, geometric, performance, and functionality tests, proving product superiority across a wide range from tensile strength to smoke density, insulation quality to abrasion resistance. These tests minimize potential loss of life and property in fire scenarios while ensuring products are long-lasting and environmentally friendly.
