hi i'm looking for some advice, I was asked to check some faults on a fire alarm last week and whilst the below problem was not linked to the faults I have a few questions.
there is over 1200 meters of FP red fire cable installed externally in the premises in question and the cables has lost colour, and the outer case has split/perished. these cables I was told were installed 7 years ago. looking at the FP specifications this cable is good for - conditions that this area would be unlikely to have .
just wondered if anyone has any advice, as I am going to recommend the replacement of the cables but wondered why this may of happened and how to stop if I replace them.
I HAVE TRIED TO ATATCH SOME PICTURES BUT THEY KEEP FAILING TO UPLOAD
