BS ISO 10295-1:2007

1   Scope This part of ISO 10295 specifies the heating condition, method of test and criteria for the evaluation of the ability of a penetration sealing system to maintain the integrity and insulation of a fire separating element at the position at which it has been penetrated, for example by a service . This part of ISO 10295 assesses

       a)  the effect of such  penetrations  on the integrity and insulation performance of the element concerned, 
   
   
     
       b)  the integrity and insulation performance of the  penetration  sealing system, 
   
   
     
       c)  the insulation performance of the penetrating  service  or  services , and where appropriate, the integrity failure of a  service . 
   
 

This part of ISO 10295 does not provide information concerning the influence of the inclusion of such penetrations and sealing systems on the load-bearing capacity of the element. It is possible that a penetration seal is a component of, or contributes to the performance of, a system to which special requirements apply. In such cases additional tests, relevant to the system and its function, can be necessary. Examples are chimneys and fire-rated ducts in air distribution systems. ...
