– Rail interiors (sometimes overlapping specs)
– Automotive and electric vehicles
– Emergency service vehicles
– Transport infrastructure systems
– Onboard control and communication systems
This regulation evaluates:
– Flame spread resistance
– Heat release
– Smoke density
– Burning behaviour of materials
R118 cables are essential for ensuring fire safety compliance in public transport systems.
