This allows the processor to use differential cooling to help retain the parts on the movable ("B") plate. Connecting cooling lines from the A to the B plate should be avoided.

Additional Criteria • Total heat release (MJ/m²) • pHRR (kW/m²) • Time of Ignition (s) • Smoke production • Acidity • Flaming droplets This example demonstrates the need to consider the complete cable design, as using XLPE for the insulation layer would not give the required Euroclass.
