This guide provides information on the installation of circuit-integrity, power, control, and instrumentation cables evaluated for hydrocarbon pool fires, as typically used in emergency and safety shutdown systems in petroleum, chemical, and similar facilities.

The purpose of the document is to provide a guide for the installation of circuit-integrity cables and performance requirements for these cables and/or cable systems, which may be subjected to a hydrocarbon pool fire. Such installations are critical to facility safety shutdown systems under hydrocarbon pool fire conditions. The use of this installation guide should help eliminate premature cable failure due to improper installation. This guide is not intended to be a design document, although many of the problems associated with the specification, selection, and installation of circuit-integrity power, control, and instrumentation can be avoided by considering the information presented in this guide.

Revision Standard - Active. Information on the installation of circuit-integrity, power, control, and instrumentation cables suitable for hydrocarbon pool fires as typically used in petroleum, chemical, and similar plants, offshore marine platforms, in emergency and safety shutdown systems are provided in this installation guide.
