Electric Cable in Imphal

The wires are insulated with FR (flame Retrandent) PVC compound, specially formulated and manufactured in house. A special grade PVC resin manufactured by the group company, baba cable, is used to manufacture this compound. This PVC compound has FR properties of high oxygen and temperature index. These properties helpin restricting the spread of fire even at very high temperatures. This special compound also offers high insulation resistance and dielectric strength. Insulation is applied over the conductor by the process of dual extrusion using state–of-the–art extrusion lines. The outer skin determines the colour identification while the inner layer is pure insulation which provides extra protection. all wires are subjected to high voltage spark testing to make sure that there are no weak spots in insulation.

Here are some key features of FR wires

Flame Retardant Properties : FR wires are designed to resist combustion and reduce the risk of fire propagation. They are less likely to ignite or sustain a fire.

Toxic Fumes Suppression : FR wires emit fewer toxic fumes when exposed to high temperatures. This is crucial for safety in enclosed spaces.

Low Smoke Emission : During a fire, FR wires produce minimal smoke, which helps maintain visibility and reduces respiratory hazards.

Improved Fire Performance : FR wires meet stringent standards for fire safety.
