What is a E-84 fire rating?

The E-84 fire rating, also known as the ASTM E84 test, measures the surface burning characteristics of building materials. It assesses how materials contribute to fire propagation, with results categorized as Class A, B, or C, where Class A indicates the best fire performance. Specifically, a material with an E-84 rating of 0 to 25 is classified as Class A, meaning it has low flame spread and smoke development. This rating is often required for materials used in commercial and residential construction for safety compliance.


What is the difference between a Class A and Class E fire alarm system?

A Class A fire alarm system is designed to provide a continuous path for alarm signals, meaning that if one circuit fails, the other can still transmit alarms. In contrast, a Class E system uses a more complex signaling method, often with a combination of circuits, allowing for multiple paths and enhanced reliability, but it may not provide the same redundancy as Class A. Essentially, Class A prioritizes simple redundancy, while Class E focuses on advanced signaling techniques.
