1) Q: What is Flame Retardant (FR) cables?

1) A: A good, flame-retardant material will be able to sit in a flame without catching fire, and if the flame is of sufficient intensity that the insulation or sheath does catch fire, it will then self-extinguish as soon as the flame source is removed. Flame-retardant materials can be found in both fire-resistant and flame-retardant cables. So this type of cables/wires will be used where we required optimization with decent quality i.e. most probably in residential/domestic applications.

2) Q: What is Fire Resistance (FR) cables?

2) A: Fire-resistant cables can continue to operate as normal within fire conditions without setting fire on its surroundings. So this type of wires will be used for where we required better resistance properties i.e. commercial or industrial application.

3) Q: What is Heat Resistance (HR) cables?

3) A: Firstly, we have heat resistant cables, which are slightly separate from the others. A heat resistant or high temperature wire or cable will make no performance promises if exposed to flames, but it will resist higher temperatures without melting. So this type of wires will be used for where we required to have more flame propagation i.e. heating environment, industrial, critical machinery and outdoor application.

4) Q: What kind of company brands that manufacturing top quality of cables / wires?

4) A: This is two different chapters when we talk about it... however commercial market in India has many options available. Companies like Havells, Polycab, Vguard, Finolex, Anchor, RRkabel, KEI, Syska, Sterlite, Uniflex, and many more would be on the line for buyers who are looking for multi-options.
