News groupers,

 

We have run into a situation where some cable may be marked incorrectly, or
perhaps not be sufficient for the application. I need to get some information.

 

In Canada, a flame/smoke rating system of FT-1 through FT-6 is used. (Perhaps
CSA C22 No. 03-M-2001)

 

In the U.S., a plenum (CMP) rating is designated in the identification on the
cable. 

 

Does anyone have a comparison chart or can you give me direction in verifying
(or not) that FT-6 is the same as plenum rated?

 

The cable is marked FT-4, CMP. Before I go to the vendor, I need a bit of
education.

 

Thank you.
