Mineral insulated cable is a cable with highly flame retardant minerals. This type of cable is also called MICC or MI cable. Mineral insulated cable is also a type of cable using inorganic insulation materials. The outer layer of the cable is a seamless copper jacket. Between the cable sheath and the metal conductor there is a tightly compacted insulating layer of magnesium oxide. The metallic conductor is usually copper, and suitable protection can also be chosen according to the requirements for the outer layer of the cable.
