3 Core Light Duty MICC Cable

Mineral insulated cable delivers ultimate fire performance. It guarantees data transmission and security of power and control circuits by exceeding the requirements of BS8519-1 providing circuit integrity to 950C. It also exceeds enhanced grade requirements defined by BS 5839-1 26.2e and satisfies all Cat 1, 2 & 3 Power, and all Cat 1, 2 & 3 Control requirements defined by BS8519. It is the only true fire survival cable.

Since MI cables use no organic material as insulation (except at the ends), they are more resistant to fires than plastic-insulated cables. MI cables are used in critical fire protection applications such as alarm circuits, fire pumps, and smoke control systems. In process industries handling flammable fluids MI cable is used where small fires would otherwise cause damage to control or power cables. MI cable is also highly resistant to ionizing radiation and so finds applications in instrumentation for nuclear reactors and nuclear physics apparatus.
