Manifold physical properties of PASCON cable trough were evaluated, and its suitability of domestic test for flammability of plastic materials was examined. Particularly, suitability of PASCON material was investigated through study on the legal propriety of PASCON cable trough used for highspeed rail line and on a fire safety. As results, domestic test for flammability of PASCON cable trough material(KS M3015) was similar to UL 94 flammability testing and from the test outstanding capability of PASCON cable trough material was proved. Besides, possibility of fire enlargement would be very low in case of fire in PASCON cable trough installed around train express. Also, fire safety of PASCON cable trough was shown to be credible.
