The acronym CPR stands for Construction Products Regulation. It is a European regulation EU 305-2011 that entered into full force in July 2017 and which establishes the basic requirements and harmonized essential characteristics that all products intended for construction must comply with the scope of application in the EU.
Cables are the only electrical products considered as a product of construction and therefore apply to cables that will be used in a fixed installation. Power, telecommunications, data and control cables are included. Those cables intended for the connection of devices or internal wiring of electrical equipment or devices are expressly excluded.
The cables affected by this regulation must be marked with the CE mark and its class of fire reaction performance.
