Ducab DuFlex & Dupan Wiring Cables are high-performance thermoplastic and thermosetting insulated wiring cables designed for fixed and flexible installations across domestic, commercial, and industrial environments. Manufactured in compliance with strict European and British standards, this range includes single-core and multicore variants suitable for building wiring, control panels, switchgear, and general appliance connections. The SmokeMaster LSZH sub-range provides enhanced fire safety with low-smoke, zero-halogen properties that minimize toxic emissions and smoke opacity in critical enclosed spaces.
Technical Features
Dual Insulation Options: Available in Thermoplastic (PVC) and Thermosetting (Cross-Linked LSZH) insulated types to accommodate standard operational environments or strict fire-safety requirements.
Versatile Conductor Formats: Features high-purity copper conductors in rigid, stranded, or flexible configurations (Class 1 solid, Class 2 stranded, and Class 5 flexible) for targeted installation needs.
SmokeMaster LSZH Technology: Built with low-smoke zero-halogen insulation and sheathing that prevents acidic gas emissions and minimizes smoke density in high-risk indoor fire scenarios.
Panel & Switchgear Compatibility: Offers specialized high-temperature single-core wiring options designed to operate reliably in dense control panel arrays and electrical switchgear assemblies.
Environmental & Rodent Resistance: Resistant to moisture, mild chemical exposure, mechanical stress, and thermal expansion, with specialized outer jacket variants offering anti-rodent protection.
Comprehensive Standard Compliance: Fully compliant with British, European, and international wiring codes, including BS EN 50525 series, BS 6004, BS 6231, BS 7211, and UL 83.
Applications
Domestic & Commercial Building Wiring: Used for fixed internal power distribution, lighting circuits, and sub-mains in residential homes, office towers, and public facilities.
Control Panels & Industrial Switchgear: Deployed for internal panel wiring, instrumentation connections, and switchboard circuitry requiring flexible, high-temperature copper conductors.
Enclosed & High-Occupancy Public Spaces: Installed in hospitals, schools, airports, and transport terminals where SmokeMaster LSZH variants are required to maintain clear evacuation routes during fires.
Buyer Guidance
Fixed vs. Flexible Wiring: Select Dupan rigid or stranded conductors (Class 1/2) for permanent conduit and trunking runs; choose DuFlex flexible conductors (Class 5) for equipment power cords, dynamic connections, or tight panel routings.
Material Selection (PVC vs. SmokeMaster LSZH): Opt for standard PVC insulation for general commercial or residential fixed wiring; specify SmokeMaster LSZH (Cross-Linked) for enclosed public buildings, data centers, and critical infrastructure where fire safety compliance is mandatory.
High-Temperature Requirements: Check operating temperature thresholds for switchgear wiring applications and verify against BS 6231 or BS 7211 panel wire standards to prevent insulation degradation.
