| AEI Cables Ltd, UK, a leading supplier of cable products for power generation and transmission, control and instrumentation, offshore, subsea, telecommunications and data, general wiring and construction, transportation, defence, mining, as well as cables for heavy industrial applications, has recently announced that it will be supplying 20,000m of specialist cabling to help ensure Liverpool�s classic St George�s Hall has the ultimate in fire protection systems. St George�s Hall is a centrepiece in Liverpool�s heritage and holds historical importance as one of the finest neo-classical buildings in Europe, used for a wide range of public events and entertainment.
AEI Cables� mineral insulated cable was specifically chosen for the work at St George�s Hall because of its characteristics, being the only mineral insulated cable approved by BASEC, the British Approvals Service for Cables. It is important that all cables used within a fire alarm system can withstand prolonged attack by fire, particularly in large public buildings of this nature. AEI�s robust mineral insulated cable is entirely non-combustible, ensuring continuity of supply in the event of fire to allow fire detection and alarm systems to continue to operate. �An efficient early warning system is essential to avoid or limit the effects of fire to historic buildings and utilising cabling that can withstand fire conditions helps ensure that the system does not fail. Mineral insulated cabling from AEI Cables meets the highest industry standards so our clients can feel reassured that the safety of the public and protection of important buildings will not be jeopardised�, commented Mr Nick Searle, managing director of AEI Cables.
