The abbreviation FRNC is used in the industry to identify installation and speaker cables that comply with specific fire protection and environmental regulations, primarily found in the European market.

Gotham's range of cables contains installation cables with the CE designation in their part numbers. These CE digits identify the FRNC standard and the fact that these cables are made of flame retardant halogen free materials, which in case of fire or very high temperature do not combust easily and which do not produce toxic by-products when burning. Other newer Gotham audio cables and speaker cables are simply labelled with FRNC designation.

All these cables are fire-resistant as per IEC testing standards which are not included in US and Canadian electrical codes. Many of these FRNC products are not regularly stocked in our US inventory. They are all included in the 2016 Gotham Cable Master Catalog, which can be downloaded here.

Please contact us for information on any specific FRNC products and their current availability in the US inventory. We are, of course, pleased to supply any of the non-stocked FRNC products on a special order basis.
