Specifies the procedure for testing small optical fibre cables, or a small insulated conductor or cable (less than 0.5 sq.mm. cross-section), when the method specified in BS EN 50265-2-1 is not suitable, because some small fibre cables may break, or small conductors may melt during flame application.
