NLU-Passive Firestop Design Training: Electrical Trade

Welcome to the Firestop Electrical Applications module. In this course, you will learn key factors to consider when designing firestop solutions for electrical penetrations through fire rated assemblies. This course also explores some commonly used firestop products which will be fundamental to your design solutions.

The knowledge gained will develop your understanding of the range of passive fire protection methods used to protect fire rated compartmentation in buildings when electrical services penetrate through them.

After completion of this course, you will be able to:
Describe the need for planning and design of electrical passive fire protection.
Explain the principles of how passive firestop products work.
Describe different electrical application configurations.
Explain the parameters that are of importance for firestopping electrical penetrants.
Describe the key design steps for firestopping electrical penetrations.
