Germany's standards agency DIN VDE originally set the parameters for circuit integrity for cables, wires, and flexible cords in the event of a fire in standard DIN VDE 0472. While this standard has now been superseded by German standard DIN VDE 0482, it remains widely referred to across the cable industry for fire performance testing and continues to be an important reference for specifying fire-resistant cables.
