We report a model and method for calculating the probability of an optical fiber cable passing a flame retardancy test (FRT). The method uses a Bayesian approach that accounts for variations in the experimental conditions between tests. We show that adding a hierarchy to the empirical model shrinks the posterior distributions and discuss the applicability of the hierarchical model to various test environments. The model uses the average smoke parameter as the predictor and can be extended to other test responses such as the peak smoke, flame spread, or toxicity.
► Each indoor optical fiber cable should pass a flame retardancy test.
► We made a model of the tests using a Bayesian regression with Markov chains.
► The model can be generalized for predicting smoke, flame spread, toxicity in FRT.
► We discuss the applicability of the hierarchical model to various test environments.
