2.0mm Pink Earth Sleeving 100m Reel – SLEEVEPINK2.0

2.0mm Pink Earth Sleeving 100m Reel – SLEEVEPINK2.0

The 2.0mm Pink Earth Sleeving – SLEEVEPINK2.0 is specifically designed for functional earth applications as recommended by BS 7671:2018+A2, making it ideal for installations in critical safety systems like fire alarms. The pink sleeving ensures clear identification of functional earth conductors, preventing misconnection and maintaining system integrity, especially in complex electrical systems.

Fire Alarm System Compliance

According to BS 7671:2018+A2 and BS 5839-1, pink sleeving is now a mandatory requirement for functional earth connections in fire detection and fire alarm systems, ensuring that these conductors are easily distinguishable from protective earth conductors, which are typically green and yellow. This helps reduce the risk of misconnection and ensures the proper operation of sensitive equipment like fire alarm systems, where functional earth is crucial for interference suppression and signal clarity.

Fire alarm installers are increasingly using this pink sleeving to comply with the updated regulations and ensure safe, reliable installations. By clearly identifying the functional earth, the sleeving prevents EMC spikes and other electrical faults that could damage fire alarm components, helping to protect both equipment and building occupants.
