Mineral Cable Production Workshop


According to professional information provided by Cable Bao, mineral insulated fire-resistant cables are used in special applications and fire protection systems. Each model utilizes a different structure and materials, but the key objective is to maintain performance and maintain normal power flow for three hours at 950°C during combustion. Below, Cable Bao's editors will explain the differences between mineral cables.


Structural Differences in Mineral Cables


BTTZ: Seamless copper sheath drawing technology + magnesium oxide mineral insulation


YTTW: Welded seamless copper sheath with braiding technology + inorganic mineral insulation


BTLY: Seamless aluminum tube extrusion technology + inorganic mineral insulation


BBTRZ: No metal tube sheath, all inorganic mineral insulation.


The insulation material composition varies depending on the model, so we won't go into detail here.


Mineral Cable Performance Comparisons


This includes a comparison of each model's voltage, specifications, national standards, fire rating, and operating temperature.
