Does anyone know of any manufactures that produce fire rated boards?

Its for 110v DC emergency lighting.

Cheers

I have never heard of a fire rated distribution board. I would suggest you install the board in a fire rated enclosure. i.e a metal cubicle sealed with intrumescent sealant.

Thought about that but space is tight and a fire rated dist board would be a neater job

GE Red Spot, not cheap but bomb proof

Red Spot are the current site standard, but I was after a board specifically fire rated.

its for 110V DC central battery emergency lighting.

Is it possible to get a fire rated battery unit? The batteries have to “gas” as they charge, extraction could be a way around it, but not satisfactory to my mind.
