Cables by Type

Mineral Insulated Cable

Our Mineral Insulated Cables are engineered for high-temperature and fire-resistant applications, making them ideal for critical fire protection systems. These cables are designed to deliver exceptional performance, reliability, and safety in environments prone to extreme heat and fire, adhering to stringent international standards.

Their robust construction ensures superior resistance to fire and high temperatures, safeguarding against electrical hazards and maintaining integrity in flammable conditions. Available in various sizes and configurations, they are suitable for a wide range of applications including alarm circuits, fire pumps, sprinklers, smoke control systems, emergency power and lighting, and power distribution. Commonly used in industries such as coal chemical, petrochemical, metallurgy, shipbuilding, power plants, medical facilities, and in critical infrastructure like high-rise buildings, hotels, hospitals, shopping malls, and transportation systems including airports, railways, and tunnels.

Construction

● Conductor: High-quality copper is used for excellent electrical conductivity and mechanical strength.

● Insulation: Conductor insulation is made from materials like Cross-Linked Polyethylene (XLPE), high-temperature resistant magnesium oxide powder, and other non-combustible inorganic materials to ensure electrical safety and durability.

● Sheathing: The outer sheath consists of high-quality annealed copper or low-smoke, non-toxic plastic materials to enhance fire safety.

● Armour: Flexible mineral insulated cables may feature aluminum alloy tape interlocked armor for additional mechanical protection.

Standard

BS 6387:1994

1. Title: Specification for Performance Requirements for Cables Required to Maintain Circuit Integrity Under Fire Conditions
