GOST R 53310-2009 PDF

Full title and description

ГОСТ Р 53310-2009 — Проходки кабельные, вводы герметичные и проходы шинопроводов. Требования пожарной безопасности. Методы испытаний на огнестойкость. (English: Through penetrations for cables, hermetic entries and busbar penetrations — Fire safety requirements — Fire-resistance test methods).

Abstract

This national Russian standard specifies terminology, fire-safety requirements and standardized test methods for determining the fire resistance of cable penetrations, hermetic cable glands and busbar penetrations installed in enclosing structures with regulated fire-resistance limits. It includes criteria for classification of fire-resistance limits (IET designations), furnace test procedures and special tests (for example, reduction of allowable continuous current for power cables routed through a penetration).

• Publication date: Adopted 18 February 2009; introduced (came into force) 1 January 2010 (with editions/registrations dated 2009).

• Number of pages: 11 pages (typical published text).

Scope

The standard applies to cable penetrations, hermetic cable entries and busbar penetrations built into enclosing constructions or fire barriers that have regulated fire‑resistance limits. It sets out the fire‑safety performance that such penetrations must meet (including that the penetration’s fire‑resistance rating shall be not less than that of the crossed structure), requirements for construction allowing replacement or additional cable routing, and standardized test methods to determine fire‑resistance and temperature/ current‑related degradation.

Key topics and requirements

• Definitions and classification of cable penetrations, hermetic inputs and busbar penetrations.
• Requirement that the fire‑resistance limit of a penetration must be at least equal to the fire‑resistance limit of the enclosing (crossed) construction.
• Designation and reporting of fire‑resistance limits using the IET series (numerical values from the series: 15, 30, 45, 60, 90, 120, 150, 180, 240, 360 minutes).
• Furnace test procedures and acceptance criteria (integrity, insulating/heat‑insulating performance, and critical temperature rise of cable sheaths or components).
• Specific test method for assessing reduction of allowable continuous current for power cables routed through a penetration (temperature and current‑loading test).
• Requirements for maintainability: designs must permit replacement and/or additional routing of cables where required for operation and maintenance.
• Marking, certification and reporting requirements for certified penetration products and systems used in fire‑resistance rated constructions.

Typical use and users

Manufacturers of cable‑penetration systems, passive fire‑protection product developers, testing laboratories and certification bodies use this standard to develop, test and certify products. Building designers, electrical and fire‑safety engineers, installers and building regulators reference it when selecting or approving penetration solutions for walls, floors and fire barriers with normative fire‑resistance requirements.

Related standards

Commonly referenced companion documents include national and international fire‑resistance and cable‑testing standards (for example, standards on structural fire‑resistance test methods and on cable combustion products), plus Russian technical regulations on fire safety (Federal Law and related GOST/IEC test standards). The standard is typically applied alongside other GOST and IEC documents that address building fire resistance and cable material testing.
