1.0 INTRODUCTION

1.1 FIRE PROTECTION REQUIREMENTS FOR ELECTRICAL' CABLES The fire protection requirements for nuclear power plants are given in Reference 1. This document' states that one train of systems necessary to achieve and maintain hot shutdown conditions must be maintained free of fire damage. Further it requires that systems necessary to achieve and maintain cold i shutdown conditions be repairable within 72 hours. Therefore, one cable train must function during and following a fire. 1 i l Several acceptable methods for protecting cables from fire damage when both redundant cable trains,are in the same fire area are given in Reference 1. These are summarized below: l Separation of redundant cable trains by a fire barrier having a 3-hour rating. I l l Separation of redundant cable trains by a horizontal j distance of 20 feet with no intervening combustible l materials, if the area has fire detectors and an automatic fire suppression system. Enclosure of one redundant train in a fire barrier having , a 1-hour rating, if the fire area has fire detectors and an automatic fire suppression system. Inside noninerted containment, redundant cables can be separated by a noncombustible radiant energy shield. Reference 2 states that a radiant energy shield shall have a fire rating of one-half hour. The fire ratings referred to in References 1 and 2 are defined by the length of exposure to a standardized fire which 4s specified in Reference 3. For example, to obtain a j 1 v L___-_______ _ _ _ _ .

3-hour fire rating for a product, it must be ~ exposed to the

                    .,  standardized fire which follows the time-temperature curve given in Reference 3 for 3 hours and to the specified. hose             ,

stream test following the fire exposure. During these tests the product must satisfy appropriate acceptance criteria.. 1.2 FIRE QUALIFICATION TEST PROGRAM The test program described in this' report demonstrates that a

                  . unique silicon dioxide mineral insulated (MI) ca'ble product will function during direct exposure to a standardized fire.

Therefore it provides an equivalent level of fire protection to that required by Reference 1. However, since the cable is not protected by a fire barrier it does not literally comply with the requirements of paragraphs III.G.2 or III.G.3 of Reference 1. Reference 4 addresses this subject directly in question 8.10 and states that an exemption or deviation'is required to use this product. i Fire-rated MI cable has been accepted as providing a radiant energy shield in specific configurations in containment (Reference 4 question 3.7.1). Three separate tests were included in the test program.

                        -     A 1-hour fire qualification test conducted at Underwriters Laboratories (UL) December 19-23, 1985.

A 3-hour fire qualification test conducted at UL on January 13-17, 1986. A high temperature electrical property test conducted at Electronic Rescurces on January 21-22, 1986.

l In the 1-hour test 10 cable assemblies were mounted on a brick l wall using normal support methods and exposed to a one hour . fire and hose stream test. The 10 cables included cables with i 10 conductors, 3 conductors, and a single conductor. Also included were cables with factory splices and connectors. The connectors were protected with an insulation wrap. During the j fire test, hose stream test and for a period in excess of 90 hours following the hose stream test, these cables carried an electrical signal except for brief periods where conductor resistance and insulation resistance measurements were taken. i ) The second OL test exposed 6 cables to a 3-hour fire and hose stream test. The 6 cables included cables with 10 conductors, 3 conductors, and a single conductor. Cables with a factory splice were also included. However, cables with connectors were not included in this test. The test procedure was - similar to that used in the 1-hour test. The purpose of the test at Electronic Resources was to obtain high temperature electrical property data on a 2-conductor cable. The cable 9:as placed in a fluidized bed furnace and ! slowly heated to the highest temperature reached during a 3-hour fire test - 1925*F. Conductor resistance and l insulation resistance measurements were taken several times as i the cable was being heated. l A description of the cables tested, the procedure used for each test, and the test results are provided in this report. l Seventeen cables were tested. All conductors in fifteen of these cables remained continuous throughout the test program. l The conductors in two cables did not remain continuous. These cables are discussed in detail later in this report. The test program conclusively showed that:

         - Silicon dioxide.MI cable, within specified limits, will
       ,   continue to function during' direct-exposure to a 1-hour-or 3-hour fire.
         - The cable returns to essentially pre-fire conditions when the fire exposure' ends.                                       >

i 3.0 QUALIFICATION TEST PROCEDURE I o 3.1 UL TESTS j The fire qualification tests were conducted in accordance with References 5, 6, and 7. Reference 5 provided the detailed j testing requirements while Reference 6 described the l procedures to be followed in installing the cable assemblies j on the test wall. The UL test procedure was provided in- i Reference 7. , The UL Test Report, Reference 8, provides a very detailed description of the test procedure followed in each test. This j report provides a summary of the test procedure. 3.1.1 1-Hour Test l 3.1.1.1 Installation of Cables on the Test Wall  ! l A solid brick wall was constructed in a steel frame to support j the cable assemblies during the fire test. The wall was j approximately 15 feet long,13 feet high, and 13.5 inches thick. The Unistrut supports were held to the wall by threaded steel rods which extended through the wall. Most of the supports were 1 foot lengths of P1000 Unistrut which were l mounted flush to the wall. However, two types of welded , ) Unistrut brackets were also mounted on the wall. One type j supported the wrapped connectors while the other type was  ! designed to hold a cable span 9 inches away frem the wall. The Unistrut supports were placed so that the span between supports was 60 inches unless the span contained a splice in , which case it was 36 inches. ') 1 The cable assemblies were removed from their shipping boxes, uncoiled and fastened to the Unistrut supports using tubing { clips, spring nuts, and bolts. Splices were located in the i 1 1

q center.of the span. Cable bends were made around an 8 inch diameter tube.- The ends of the cable were pushed through. wall penetrations so that electrical connections could be.made to the cable on the cold side of the wall. Tubing clip bolts were torqued to 35 inch-pounds. The 3 pairs of cables with connector halves were joined to i make 3 cable assemblies. The connector was tightened with a l pre-set torque spanner. wrench provided by CE. A thermocouple was attached to each connector before they were wrapped with'- ) insulation. The wrapping procedure was done in accordance with the method specified in Reference 6. Pieces of mat- L material 10 inches by 11 inches were wrapped around the cable ) on each side of the connector. Then two additional pieces of the mat, 40 inches by 24.5 inches were wrapped, one piece at a time, around the cable. The resulting insulation wrap was 24.5 inches long, 5.5 inches in diameter, and 7 1ayers thick. Aluminum foil and filament tapes held the mat material in place during the wrapping process. After the mat material was installed the ends of the wrap were coated with a thin layer of 303 putty to seal any openings. Then the stainless steel sheet was wrapped around the insulation and secured with hose clamps. The wrapped connectors were fastened to the Unistrut brackets on the test wall with two additional hose clamps. The clamps were tightened sufficiently to hold the assembly-snugly without crushing the insulation. The wall penetrations were sealed with a firestop system , comprised of hydraulic cement and ceramic fiber insulation. The central 9 inch depth of each opening was tightly packed with ceramic (alumina-silica) fiber. A nominal 2 inch thickness of hydraulic cement was then troweled into the i opening on each side of the wall to fill the remainder of the cavity flush with the surface of the wall. o. The temperature of the cable on the cold side of the wall was monitored with 3 thermocouple attached to one cable. The 9

1 1 i i first thermocouple was located as close as possible to the j point at which the cable exited from the wall penetration, j The second was 1 inch from the wall and the third was 3 inches i from the wall. These three thermocouple provided a ) temperature profile of the cable as a function of distance from the wall. , l 1 The layout of the cables on the test wall is shown in Figures 2 and 3. Figure 2 also lists the length of each cable exposed to the furnace temperatures. Pictures taken during the wrapping of insulation around the connectors are shown in Figure 4. The cold side of the test wall is shown in Figure 1

5. This picture shows the Unistrut supports used to hold the cable and the terminal blocks used to make electrical connections to the cable assemblies.

3.1.1.2 Fire Test To run the fire test, the brick wall was moved to the wall l oven and locked into place. The arrangement of the oven and wall.is shown in Figure 2. The oven was gas fired and closely followed the time temperature curve specified by Reference 3 and shown in Figure 6. The temperature of the oven was monitored and controlled by 12 thermocouple placed 6 inches from the surface of the wall. At the 60 minute point, the furnace was adjusted to maintain a constant temperature of approximately 1700*F while the electrical measurements were completed. Following the fire test, the wall was unlatched from the oven and moved about 25 feet where a fire hose was used to direct a water hose stream at the cables and wall. The hose stream test was applied with a 1-1/8 inch diameter nozzle at a pressure of 30 psi from a distance of 20 feet in accordance with the requirements of Reference 3. The hose stream was appiiedtothewallandcableassembliesfor1 min.-57sec. u____________ _ _ _ . _ _ _ _ _ _ - . _ _ _ _ ___,_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ . _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ . _ _ _ _ _ _ _ . - _ _

Following the hose stream test the wall was moved off to the side of the test facility for the post fire integrity test which lasted approximately 90 hours. l 3.1.1.3 Electrical Measurements  ; Before the fire test, a set of pre-test conductor resistance j and insulation resistance : measurements were obtained for all ten cables. The insulation resistance measurements were taken with a Megonm Bridge. .

                                                                                                           )

Prior to the start of the fire test an dectric signal was j applied to each caole. These signals were applied cor.tinuously during the fire test, hose stream test, and post fire integrity test except for brief periods when conductor resistance, insulation " sistance and dielectric strength j l measurements were taken. The electrical signals applied to each cable are sumarized below: Electrical Signals Cable No. Serial No. Description Electrical Signal 1 16-35-00020 1 10/C-Ch Al w/ splice .50 mV DC applied 2 16-35-00010-1 10/C-Ch Al to one pair of 3 16-35-00030-1 conductors.

The known resistance used 6

l was 1.25x10 ohms. A complex electrical circuit using relays and pushbutton switches was designed and constructed by UL so that the conductor resistance and insulation resistance measurements could be taken rapidly. Depressing a pushbutton energized a I relay which disconnected the applied current or' voltage from a single cable assembly and simultaneously connected two leads from that cable to either a digital multimeter which measured conductor resistance or to the circuit used to determine insulation resistance. This method minimized the length of

time that each cable did not have an applied current or voltage.

          'ollowing the 1-hourLfire test, the furnace temperature was-
  .,      maintained at' approximately 1700*F for an additional 10 minutes while the dielectric strength of each cable was measured and recorded. The dielectric strength test .was repeated approximately 40 minutes'after completion of the hose stream test. The dielectric strength test.was run on each cable by shorting all conductors in a cable together and' l          applying an AC voltage between the ' conductors and the cable s
         . sheath. The voltage was increased at a rate of 100 V AC/sec from 0 to.600 V AC unless.the leakage current exceeded 10 mA.

If the:11mit on leakage current was exceeded, the test instrument was reset:and the process repeated until a voltage l which could be sustained was established. After 1 minute'the leakage current was recorded. Following the post fire integrity test, a complete set of l conductor and insulation-resistance measurements were taken. A Megohm Bridge was used.to take the insulation resistance - measurements. Finally, a dielectric strength test was run on each cable.

except that the test was run for 3 hours. ;The furnace l l_ temperature closely followed the time temperature curve of l Reference 3 which is shown in Figure 6. Following the fire-test, the cable assemblies and test wall .l were subjected to a water hose stream test. The hose stream

                                                            - was applied with a 1-1/8 inch diameter nozzle at a pressure of 30 psi from a distance of'20 feet for 4 minutes-53 seconds.

Following the' hose stream test the wall was moved off to the side of the test facility for the post fire. integrity test which lasted approximately 90 hours. 3.1.2.3 Electrical Measurements Before the fire test, a complete set of pre-test conductor resistance and insulation resistance measurements were taken _ . for all 6 cables.

4.0 QUALIFICATION TEST RESULTS l 4.1- UL TESTS Reference 8 provides detailed results and ob'servations from i the two tests conducted at UL. These restilts are summarized in this report. 4.1.1 1-Hour Test-l l I The cables were exposed to a well-distributed _ fire. The j furnace temperature closely followed the standard J time-temperature curve. The actual average furnace I temperatures are compared to the standard curve in Figure 7. 1 By 45 seconds after starting the fire test, each cable began j to " snake" between.the supports due to thermal expansion. By .l 4 minutes, 44 seconds the cables had deflected laterally ~ l approximately 6 inches. The magnitude of deflection did not appear to increase or decrease during the remainder of the test. The furnace fire was extinguished at 70 minutes. The hose stream test comenced approximately 3 minutes after 1 the furnace fire was extinguished. The action of the hose

                                                                             ]

l stream created clouds of steam and caused many chunks of brick ! to fly out.from the wall. However, the hose stream did not 'I appear to have any significant effect on the cable assemblies, i The action of the hose stream is shown in Figure 8. Following the hose stream test, the wall was moved off to the side of the test facility for the post fire integrity test which lasted about 90 hours. i The conductors in 9 of the 10 cables remained continuous and carried their applied current and voltage throughout the entire test program. The exception was cable assembly 40. This cable is discussed further in Section 5.1.1.3. l

l 1 Following the test, on the-exposed side of the wall, the cable ') 4 remained firmly attached to the support channels. The .I stainless steel sheath of the cable assemblies was discolored as was the stainless steel sheet over the wrapped connectors' l i on cable assemblies 3, 6 and 9. The stainless steel support j channels were also' discolored. The cable clamps were oxidized. Figure 9 shows the cable assemblies following the fire test. On the unexposed side of the wall assembly, no visible changes f occurred.  !

                                   - After all post test measurements were made, the protective j

wrap on the connectors of cable assemblies 3, 6 and 9 was removed. Beneath the protective wrap, each of the connectors l appeared to be in its pre-test condition. The< stainless steel } cable sheath was not discolcred, the color of the paint' dots l used to guide connector alignment was unchanged and the ? 0-rings in the connector appeared.to be in original condition. 4.1.1.1 Applied Current and/or Voltage A 50 mV DC signal was applied to one pair of conductors in cable assemblies 1, 2 and 3 and the voltage across an adjacent . 1 pair of conductors was monitored using_a chart recorder with a ) 50 mV range. At approximately 9 minutes into the fire test, ) the voltage across the three non-energized pairs abruptly l increased from 0 and quickly exceeded the 50 mV range of the  ; recorder. At 11 minutes, 30 seconds the measured voltage , across these 3 pairs of conductors ranged between 80 and 200.mV. The voltage across the non-energized pairs of conductors in these three cable assemblies remained beyond the 50 mV range of the recorder during the remainder of the fire test. Immediately following the hose stream test, this voltage returned to the' pretest measurement of 0 mV. The cause of this voltage is discussed in Section 5.1.1.1. s

J A 1 A DC current was applied to each conductor in cable l numbers 4 through 9. The 12 conductors in these 6 cables were I placed in a series circuit with a large wire wound variable. resistor and a voltage source. As the cable was exposed to. the fire, the resistance of the conductors increased, however, the 1 A DC current was easily maintained by adjusting the variable resistor. The 1 A DC signal was maintahled l throughout the test program except for brief periods when electrical measurements were being taken.

                                                                                .I A 30 mA signal at 50 V DC was applied to a pair af conductors in cable number 10.- This signal was maintained until            y approximately 38 minutes into the fire test when the              i conductors in this cable began to open. Refer to Section       ~

I 5.1.1.3 for further discussion. 4.1.1.2 Conductor Resistance Measurements All the conductors in cables numbered 1 through 9 remained continuous through the fire test, hose stream test and the post fire integrity test. The conductors in cable number 10 began to open at the 38 minute. point and were all open following the hose stream test. This is discussed further in Section 5.1.1.3. Conductor resistance measurements taken bafore the fire test, near the end of the fire test, following the hose stream test, and at the end of the post fire integrity test are summarized in Table 4. Additional resistance measurements taken during the fire test and the post fire integrity test are available in Reference 8. The measured values includt the resistance of the wires outside the furnace used to connect the cable assemblies to the test instrumentation. o. L

4 4.1.1.3 Insulation Resistance Measurements The insulation resistance of each cable was directly measured-before the start and at the end of the test program. Voltage measurements were taken during the fire test, imediately following the hose stream test and duririg the post fire integrity test for selected conductors in each cable. From the measurements, insulation resistance values were calculated using the formula given in Sectict 3.1.1.3.

         'The voltage measurements were taken as described in Section 3.1.1.3. When taking these measurements, it was observed.that'       ,

! the measured voltage generally dccreased as a function of the l i length of time that the voltage was applied. This means that j the insulation resistance was increasing with the duration of l applied voltage. 'Due to the requirement of taking many measurements in a short time, and to take each measurement on a consistent basis the voltage measurement was taken 5 seconds after applying the voltage, even though the soltage was'still l decreasing in many cases. The increase ir, insulation l resistance as a function of the duration of. applied voltage is a phenomenon due to such things as cable capacitance and external circuit resistance (Reference 10).. Normally, insulation resistance readings are taken after 1 or 2 minutes. l However, since 360 measurements were taken during the 1-hour l fire test it was not possible to wait 1 or 2 minutes to take each measurement. The insulation resistance values for each cable are sumarized in Tables 5 and 6. The insulation resistance values measured before and following the test are presented in units of ohms in Table 5. The insulation resistance values determined during the fire test and post fire integrity test are given in Table 6. These values have been normalized by multiplying the insulation resistance in ohms by the length of exposed cable in feet. This allows the insulation resistance values for i L c each cable to be compared on an equal basis. For most cable assemblies, each insulation resistance set includes 3 conductor to conductor values and 3 conductor to sheath values. The minimum, average and maximum values of these groups are given in Table 6. There is only one conductor to sheath value for cable assemblies 7, 8, and 9. This value appears in all three conductor to sheath columns. 4.1.1.4 Voltage Withstand Test The re::ults from the voltage withstand test are summarized in Table 7. 4.1.1.5 Cable Connector Temperature l l The temperature of each connector, inside the insulation wrap, is summarized in Table 8 and is plotted as a function of time in Figure 10. The maximum connector temperature at 60 minutes I and 70 minutes into the fire test was 228'F and 280'F respectively. 4.1.1.6 Cable Temperature Outside Furnace l l The temperatures recorded by the three thermocouple on cable assembly 5 are summarized in Table 9. The maximum cable temperature at its exit point from the test wall at the end of j the fire test was 67'F, an increase of 4*F. l l 4.1.2 3_-Hour Test l The cables were exposed to a well-distributed fire. The furnace temperature closely followed the standard ! time-temperature curve. The actual average furnace

The furnace fire was extinguished at 180 minutes.                                           I The hose stream test' commenced approx 1mately'3 minutes.after the furnace fire was extinguished. The action of the hose stream created clouds of steam and caused many chunks of brick to fly out from the wall. The hose stream did not appear to                                    j have any s'ignificant effect on'the cable assemblies. The hose l        stream is shown in Figure 14.                                                                   j l                                                                                                         }

Following the hose stream test, the wall:was moved off to the j side of the test facility for the post fire integrity test which lasted about 90 hours. The conductors in 5 of the 6 cables remained continuous and i carried tneir applied current and/or voltage throughout thel l test program. The exception was cable number 2 which failed at some point between 67 minutes and 90 minutes of fire exposure. The failure of this cable is discussed further in , Section 5.1.1.4. l t Following the test, en the exposed side of the wai'i, the cable ' n semblies remained firmly attached to the' support channels. The staWiess steel sheath of the cable assemblies was

which is not consistent with the other data.. Insulati~on. resistance and conductor resistance measurements were taken at -; 93, 96, and 99 minutes. It is felt that these measurements,  ; which interrupted the thermocouple circuit briefly caused the I abnormal temperature spike. Cable assembly 2 stopped I functioning electrically at.some 'pcint between 67 minutes and I 90 minutes. Prior to 67 minutes the maximum.diffarence l between the signals carried by the MI cable and.the referenca thermocouple was 7.7'F for the hot reference and 8.2'F for-the cold reference. ,, I h

{ .o The absolute' accuracy of the thermocouple routed through

A 1 A DC current was applied to each conductor in cable. numbers 3 through 6. The 8 conductors in these 4 cables were placed in a series circuit with a large wire wound variable. . resistor and a voltage source. As the cables were exposed to' I the fire, the conductor resistance increased, however, the 1 A DC current'was easily maintained by adjusting the variable l resistor. The 1 A DC current was maintained throughout the I test program except for brief periods when electrical measurements were being taken. 4.1.2.2 Conductor Resistance Measurements All the conductors in cable assemblies 1,.3, 4, 5, and 6 j remained continuous through the fire test, hose stream test  ! and the post fire integrity test. The conductor resistance measurements taken on cable assembly 2 through. 65 minutes of the fire test show the conductors to be continuous. Conductor resistance measurements taken beyond this point show'that the cable has been damaged as is discussed further in Section 5.1.1.4. l l Conductor resistance measurements taken before the fire test, at approximately 1-hour and 3-hours into the fire test, immediately following the hose stream test and at the end of the post fire integrity test are summarized in Table 10. The j measured values include the resistance of the test circuitry outside the furnace. s 4.1.2.3 Insulation Resistance Measurements The insulation resistance values for each cable are summarized in Tables 11 and 12. The insulation resistance values l measured before and following the test are presented in units of ohms in Table 11. The insulation resistance values determined during the fire test and post fire integrity test are given in Table 12. These values are expressed in units of l ohm-feet so that the insulation resistance of each cable can be compared without regard to the length of cable exposed to the fire.  ; J It was observed during the second test, as in the first test, that the measured voltage generally decreased as a function of the length of time that the voltage was applied. Voltage measurements were again taken after 5 seconds of applied voltage. 4.1.2.4 Voltage Withstand Test The results from the voltage withstand test are summarized in Table 13. I l During the fire test, and immediately following the hose stream test the voltage was increased rapidly to 600 V DC on cable assemblies 1, 3, 5 and 6, held for a minute, and a leakage current reading was taken. With cable assemblies 2 and 4 breakdown occurred as the voltage was being increased. Breakdown occurred several times before a voltage level that could be sustained was established. The instrument used to apply the voltage was not well regulated and consequently the 10 mA maximum current specified by Reference 5 was greatly exceeded. Cable assembly 2 which was functioning electrically I prior to the first voltage breakdown test was not functioning following this test. d-At the end of the test program, all cable assemblies were able to withstand 600 V DC.

1 5.1 DISCUSSION OFlTEST RESULTS l 1

                                                    .   . .                                 I The fire qualification program tested 17 cable ' assemblies.

Ten of these were exposed to a 1-hour fire test,.6.to a 3-hour fire test and 1 to an elevated temperature test. Fifteen.of these cables remained functional throughout the test program. The two cables that did not are discussed in Sections-5.1.1.3-- and 5.1.1.4. 5.1.1 Applied Current and/or Voltage l l 5.1.1.1' Cables With Chrome 1/Alumel Conductors j l In UL Test No. 1, a 50 mV DC signal'was applied to one pair of conductors in cable assemblies 1,2, and 3 and the voltage .

                                                                                          'I across an adjacent pair of conductors'was monitored. The purpose of this measurement was.to determine if cross-talk between pairs of conductors in a multi-conductor. thermocouple.

cable would cause unacceptable signal error during a fire. Several minutes into the fire the voltage across.the adjacent pairs in each cable increased to values in excess of 50 mV DC.

                - This behavior was not'due 'to cross-talk between conductor pairs. If it was, the measured voltage-would have been less-i

l than 50.mV DC. The cause was due to a thermally induced  ! voltage between two conductors of dissimilar materials. If l the conductors had been connected into a circuit, the voltage would have disappeared. This was demonstrated in the second UL test. In UL Test No. 2, two pairs from cable assemblies 1 and 2 were connected into thermocouple circuits. The variation in temperature between the signals carried by the MI cable assemblies and the reference thermccouples' connected directly j to the data acquisition system is shown in Figure 16.'No l indication of cross-talk between conductor pairs is shown. ] The differences between the signals carried by the cable assemblies and the reference signals are. felt to have been caused by complexity of the circuitry connected to the cable assemblies. Switching the thermocouple circuits in and out to I take electrical measurements may have introduced error due to transient voltage. In addition, the absolute error of the thermocouple circuits using the cable-assemblies was effected by the presence of 4 chromel/alumel to copper junctions in each circuit. A difference of many degrees in temperature between these junctions was possible and may have generated 1 the observed differences. l l The test has shown that cross-talk is not a source of signal error between conductor pairs in a cable carrying a thermocouple signal at elevated temperature. 5.1.1.2 Cables With Copper Conductors Each copper conductor in cable assemblies 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9 in VL Test No. I and 3, 4, 5, and 6 in UL Test No. 2 carried a 1 ampere current throughout the test program except for brief-periods when electrical measurements were taken. The smallest conductor in these cable assemblies had a diameter of G.032 inches.

b a The test program has qualified copper conductors of 0.032 inch

   "     diameter for currents up to 1 ampere for service during a            l 3-hour fire.

5.1.1.3 Cable Assembly 10 in UL Test No. 1 Cable assembly 10 in UL Test No. I had 10 0.015 inch diameter copper conductors. Conductor resistance measurements taken at 1 35 minutes and insulation resistance m. measurements taken with l 49.5 V DC at 37 minutes show that the cable was functioning as ! expected. However, insulation resistance measurements taken with 200 V DC at 40 minutes and conductor resistance I measurements at 44 minutes show abnormal behavior. At 55 i minutes most conductors were open. Following the hose stream l test all conductors were open and remained open throughout the post fire integrity test. All the conductors in this cable remained functional for about 38 minutes and then within a few minutes they all failed. Therefore, the reason that these j conductors failed has to apply equally to all ten conductors. j l When copper is heated to a high temperature, the grain size i increases. It is hypothesized that for the small diameter I copper conductors in cable assembly 10, the grains in each conductor grew until their size was on the order of the l diameter of the wire and that failure of the conductors occurred at grain boundaries. Such a hypothesis is consistent with all conductors failing within a short time period. Cable assembly 10 was unique in that all other cable assemblies with copper conductors had larger conductors. Cable assemblies 4, 5 and 6 in UL Test No. 1, cable assemblies 3 and 4 in VL Test No. 2, and the cable used in the ERO test ' all had 0.032 inch diameter copper conductors. None of these conductors failed. 4-

                                                                                                         .j The failure of cable assembly 10 clearly places.a lower bound on the size of copper conductors which have been qualified for use in fire protection applications by this . test program.
                  . Conductors smaller than 0.032 inch diameter have~not 'een         b qualified.

5.1.1.4 Cable Assembly. 2 in UL Test No. 2 - The thermocouple signals carried by. cable assembly 2 in UL Test No. 2 were within a few degrees of the reference. thermocouple at 67.5 minutes'when'the cable was disconnected from the test instrumentation in order to take voltage 2 withstand measurements. During the voltage withstand test,: voltage breakdown occurred several times'before a voltage-which could be sustained was established. The supply'used to q apply the voltage.was not well regulated and a large leakage current was carried each time breakdown occurred. .When the thermocouple circuits were re-connected following the voltage.  ; breakdown test, the thermocouple signals were not meaningful and conductor resistance measurements were abnormal. Following the hose stream test the conductors monitored during conductor resistance measurements were found to be open. At the end of the test program, all conductors were checked and-found to be open. Cable assembly 1 continued to function throughout the test , program. The only difference between these,two cables is that assembly 2 had a cable splice. The failure hypothesis is that the cable splice was damaged during the voltage breakdown test because of a high current surge due to test equipment problems. Since the chromel/alumel cable with splice was-functional for the first 67.5 minutes of the test, the chrome 1/alumel cable splice is limited-to a 1-hour fire rating.

fB 4 1 5.1.2. Conductor Resistance Exposing the cable to high temperatures caused conductor': resistance to increase. LWhen.the cables were cooled to room temperature, conductor resistance returned to essentially' pre-test values except for cable'10 in the 1-hour fire test ' and cable 2 in the 3-hour fire test. Conductor resistance measurements are summarized in Tables 4,,10 and.16. l

            .It is not possible to determine the exact change in conductor resistance with-increase in temperature from the UL test data because the resistance of the-test circuitry outside the furnace was not measured. However, Reference'9, the ERD elevated temperature test report,-includes a table in-which the resistance of the hot length of.each conductor was-calculated. This data were-used to estimate the ratio of.

conductor resistance at two elevated temperatures:to the value at room temperature. Conductor resistance at 1700'F , 4. 2 ' Conductor resistance at room temperature Conductor resistance at 1925'F , 5.5 Conductor resistance at room temperature-These values are in agreement with the curve of resistance of copper as a function of temperature given in Reference 11. . The observed increase in the resistan'ce:of cable conductors with increasing temperature'was expected. The actual increases observed in the conductors at the ERD test were consistent with that given in the technical literature. L:

j 5.1.3 Insulation Resistance The insulation resistance of the cable assembliet decreased as. the temperature increased. When the cables cooled to room temperature the insulation resistance increased. In most cases it returned to. essentially pre-test values. In all cases it increased to values high enough that instrument error introduced in most applications would not be measurable. Insulation resistance values are summarized in Tables 5, 6, 11, 12, and 15. l l The insulatior. resistance' values obt;ined for the cable

           . assemblies during the two UL tests were based on measurements _   -

taken approximately 5 seconds after applyir.g the voltage. As l discussed in Section 4.1.'1.3 the insulation rssistance was 1 increasing in most cases while the measurement was' taken. Therefore these measurements are lower bounds or, the actual insulation resistance of the cable. Since there 's scatter in

                                                                                       ]

the data and each insulation resistance value is a lower bound j on the true insulation resistance, the average value of each  ! set of values will be used to characterize the insulation  ! t resistance of these cables. The insulation resistance velues i at 50 V DC and 200 V DC were similar. Values obtained at Loth applied voltages were included in the averaging process. In the ERD elevated temperature test, insulation resistance-measurements were taken after the meter had stabilized. Therefore, the minimum value of insulation resistance measured from conductor to conductor and conductor to sheath will be used to characterize the insulation resistance of the cable used in that test. 1 1 o. l L

A 5.1.4 Voltage Withstan'd Test o The results from the voltage withstand tests are summarized in Tables 7 and 13. In'UL Test No. 1, an alternating current voltage was applied to each cable assembly. During'the. fire test, each assembly , sustained a voltage between 250 and 300 V AC, except for. . assembly 4 which sustained 600 V.AC. Immediately.following the hose stream test and at the end of the test 600 V AC was. applied to each cable-assembly without breakdown. In VL Test No. 2, a direct current voltage was used. Cable assemblies 1, 3, 5, and 6 were able'to withstand 600 V DC without breakdown during the fire test, following the hose-stream test, and at the end of the test program. When.the l voltage was applied to assemblies.2 and 4 during the fire test and following the hose stream test, however, breakdown did occur before 600 V DC was reached. Cable assemblies 2 and 4 both had cable splices. A 200 V DC voltage was applied to each cable every time insulation resistance measurements were taken. Voltage breckdown did not occur during any of these measurements.' The test program established that unspliced cable can withstand 600 V DC during a.3-hour fire.; However the spliced cable was limited to 200 V DC. Therefore the rating of the l cable is limited to 200 V DC. l L

Cable assemblies 3, 6, and 9 in UL Fire Test No. 1 had 4 connectors which were protected from the . fire exposure by an insulation wrap. The insula' tion successfully protected the ]

connectors. The goal was to keep the connector temperature below 325'F during the 1-hour fire test. . Even with the fire I test extended ten minutes'to finish electrica1' measurements,

l the maximum temperature reached by a connector was only l 280.4'F. R A visual inspection of the connectors following the' test _ program confirmed the effectiveness of the insulation wrap.- The paint dots used for connector' alignment were unchanged in_ l color, the 0-rings were_in good. condition, and there was no discoloration of the st'ainless steel. An insulation wrap installed in accordance with C-E specifications will provide a 1-hour fire rating for the cable-connector.

                                                                                                                                                     ~

5.1.6 Cable Temperature Outside Furnace During both UL fire tests, the temperature of a. cable assembly at its exit point from the test wall'was monitored with thermocouple. These thermocouple showed that very little heat is conducted through the fire barrier by the cable. Cable temperature increased by 4*F during the 1-hour fire test and 36*F during the 3-hour fire test. Clearly the cable does not create a fire hazard by conducting heat through a fire barrier. 5.1.7 Cable Support Method The cable assemblies were fastened to the test wall with Unistrut supports and hardware.

each 3 conductor cable reached a minimum value prior to the i 1-hour point. The time at which the minimum value was measured is given in the table above. The insulation resistance values at these times were r"eraged to obtain the value given in Table 17. The insulation resistance value at 1925'F is the average of all the values for cable assembly 4 in VL Test No. 2. The  ! values were taken at 49.8 V DC at 2 hours:50 minutes and at 200-V DC at 2 hours:52 minutes. This is the minimum average value measured during the 3-hour test. l The insulation resistance values for cable assembly 4 in UL Test No. 1 and cable assembly 3 in UL Test No. 2 were significantly higher than the values for the other 3 conductor cables tested. These values have not been considered in determining the insulation resistance of the 3 conductor cable because they are not felt to be representative of the 3 conductor cable. l The insulation resistance values for the ten conductor chromel/alumel cables and for the single conductor copper , cables are similar whether they are for plain cable assemblies or assemblies with a splice or a wrapped connector. The three conductor cable is the exception. The plain cable assembly i had significantly higher insulation values than the assemblies with a splice or a wrapped connector. The insulation resistance of the assemblies with a wrapped connector should 3 1 be the same as plain cable assemblies because the temperature I of the connector never exceeded 300'F. This was the case for l the 10 conductor chromel/alumel cables and the single j conductor cables. Therefore, the insulation resistance measurements of the three conductor plain cable assemblies , were neglected because they are not consistent with the data for the other cable assemblies. ll l l 1 l

Single conductor cable: The insulation resistance value at 1700*F is the average of the values for cable assemblies 7, 8 and 9 in UL Test No. 1 and assemblies 5 and 6 in UL Test No. 2. The values from UL

      . Test No. 1 were taken at 49.5 V DC at 48 minutes into the fire test and at 200 V DC at 51 minutes-into the fire test. The values from UL Test No. 2 were taken at 49.8 V DC at 60 minutes into the fire test and at 200 V DC at I hour:3 minutes into the fire test. This is the minimum average value obtained for a 1-hour fire test.

The insulation res'istance value at 1925*F.was set equal to that at 1700*F because the average insulation resistance value, for cable assemblies 5 and 6 near the end of the 3-hour fire test, was higher than the value obtained during the first hour of the fire test. 1

The insulation resistance of cable assemblies with plain H cable, a factory splice, or a connector is not significantly ] different. Therefore, a separate insulation resistance value has not been calculated for the factory splice.
