Product Description
The CQR 8 Core LSF Low Smoke Full Copper Alarm Cable 100m – White (CAB8/WH/LSF/100M) is an eight-core, unscreened reel for alarm wiring jobs where the spec calls for a low-smoke jacket.
Where it fits a project
Low Smoke & Fume sheathing tends to be written into specifications for offices, retail units, warehouses and residential blocks, so a single 100m reel can cover a panel-to-device run on those jobs. White suits visible surface-run cable in lighter-coloured interiors.
