Purpose
CPR is designed to provide free circulation of construction products in the European Union, which means "Construction Products Regulation" or "Construction Materials Regulation". The performance statements of the CPR construction products specify the rules for CE marking, introduce into the market and performance continuity.

Scope
For cable sector, CPR (Construction Products Regulation) contains the requirements of the harmful substances emission with reaction to fire and fire resistance performance of the power, control and telecommunication cables used in any construction in fixed installations, including building and substructure. Besides, it necessitates the declaration of performance against fire and CE marking of the cables used in constructions.
Basic necessaries of CPR for cables:
1. Reaction to Fire
2. Resistance to Fire
3. Release of Dangerous Substances
EN 50575 standard has been published which determines CPR’s control, telecommunication and power cables’ reaction to fire performance criterias and test methods of these criterias. However, no clear date has been set for entry into enforcement.
