Information for Copper Cable

Mineral Insulated Copper Cable (MICC) is a type of electrical cable that is known for its durability, fire resistance, and excellent electrical performance. Here are the key aspects of MICC:

Composition
Conductor: The conductor is usually made of high-purity copper, which offers low resistance and excellent conductivity.
Insulation: The insulation consists of a mineral compound, typically magnesium oxide (MgO) powder, which serves as the insulating medium.
Outer Sheath: The cable is sheathed in a robust metal casing, often made of copper or stainless steel, which provides physical protection and contributes to fire resistance.
Key Features
Fire Resistance: MICC can withstand high temperatures (up to 250°C) and does not emit toxic fumes, making it suitable for use in fire-sensitive areas.
Durability: The metal sheath protects against mechanical damage, moisture, and harsh environmental conditions, enabling the cable to last longer than standard cables.
Low Smoke Emission: In the event of a fire, MICC emits very little smoke and noxious gases, enhancing safety in buildings.
Corrosion Resistance: The metal sheath offers good resistance to corrosion, making MICC suitable for outdoor applications and in chemical environments.

Corrosion-resistant mineral insulated copper cables (MICC) are specifically designed to perform reliably in harsh environments, where exposure to moisture, chemicals, and extreme temperatures can lead to significant deterioration of traditional electrical cables. Here’s a detailed overview of their features, applications, and advantages:

Features of Corrosion-Resistant Mineral Insulated Copper Cable
Construction:

Copper Conductor: The core of MICC is typically made of high-purity copper, offering excellent conductivity and durability.
Mineral Insulation: The insulation is made from inorganic materials (often magnesium oxide) which provide excellent thermal and mechanical properties.
Metal Sheath: A protective metal sheath, usually made of copper or stainless steel, shields the insulation and conductor from external damage and environmental factors.
Corrosion Resistance:

The use of stainless steel or other corrosion-resistant alloys for the outer sheath helps prevent damage from saltwater, chemicals, and other corrosive agents.
The mineral insulation is non-hygroscopic, meaning it does not absorb moisture, preventing corrosion of the copper conductor.
Temperature Rating:

MICC can withstand extreme temperatures, often rated for use in environments ranging from -200°C to +250°C, making them suitable for both cryogenic and high-temperature applications.
Fire Resistance:

Mineral insulated cables are inherently fire-resistant because they do not burn or contribute to the spread of flames. They can maintain circuit integrity even in high-temperature fire situations.
Mechanical Strength:

MICC offers high mechanical strength and resistance to impact, making them ideal for environments where physical damage is a concern.
