Specialty cable such as certain coaxial cable that cannot pass the flammability test contained in IEEE 1580, test FV-2/VW-1 of ANSI/UL 2556, IEC 60332-3-21:2018, or IEC 60332-3-22:2018 (all incorporated by reference; see § 110.10-1 of this subchapter) because of unique properties of construction, must:
(a)Be installed physically separate from all other cable; and
(b)Have fire stops installed—
(1)At least every 7 meters (21.5 feet) vertically, up to a maximum of 2 deck heights;
(2)At least every 15 meters (46 feet) horizontally;
(3)At each penetration of an A or B Class boundary;
(4)At each location where the cable enters equipment; or
(5)In a cableway that has an A-60 fire rating. [CGD 94-108, 61 FR 28280, June 4, 1996, as amended by USCG-2003-16630, 73 FR 65198, Oct. 31, 2008; USCG-2013-0671, 78 FR 60153, Sept. 30, 2013; USCG-2020-0075, 88 FR 16363, Mar. 16, 2023]
