- Abstract
- This real-magnitude test demonstrates the efficiency of the Halon 1301 as a means of extinguishing fires in electrical cable bundles, even in cases where the fire spreads to the vertical bundles, however, with the following reserve: the need for the "flooding" of the embers with water to prevent the fire from restarting.
