Casa Technology Systems, LLC provides cable removal services throughout Arizona, for both industrial and commercial building facilities. Don't let Abandoned Cable render your property 'out of code.'
As new tenants take over existing buildings, new network and telecommunication needs are brought forth, leaving many industrial and commercial office buildings left with ceilings full of abandoned cable. Abandoned cable is defined by the National Electric Code® as “Installed communications cable that is not terminated at both ends at a connector or other equipment and not identified for future use with a tag.”
The National Fire Protection Agency ("NFPA") and the National Electric Code® ("NEC") recognize the potential fire safety threat posed by abandoned cable. These threats include:
- The potential to fuel and spread fires in concealed spaces; thereby, creating a significant danger to fire and safety personnel
- Overfilled cable conduit pathways and spaces
- Severely restricted airflow through ducts
Due to these identified threats, the NFPA and the NEC have developed codes and standards requiring the removal of abandoned cable. Specifically, Section 800 of the 2002 NEC states: “ The accessible portion of abandoned communications cable shall not be permitted to remain.” This section also states that: “abandoned cables in verticals shall be removed.”
