Baotuquan cable official website tells you the distinction and selection of flame-retardant and fire-resistant cables

In recent years, in the global power system fire accidents, the proportion of power system power supply interruptions caused by power cable fires has increased. Therefore, in power plants, substations and other places where there are a large number of electrical equipment and a large number of cables are intensively laid, flame-retardant cables are used to prevent the spread of fire, and it is increasingly important to use flame-resistant cables to ensure uninterrupted power supply for important circuits.

Baotuquan Cable Group Mineral Insulated Cable--Fireproof Cable

As the general wire and cable are insulated with organic polymer materials, they are easily carbonized under flame conditions and lose their insulation. Since the main materials of the flexible mineral insulated fireproof cable are composed of mineral compounds, it will not cause fire by itself, and cannot burn or support combustion. These materials generally have a relatively high melting point above 1500°C.
