Best Answer

The prime application for the use of MI cable is in very high ambient temperature locations. The cable is also used in areas that are considered explosion proof. There is an explosion proof gland that is installed on the end of the cable that connects directly into the explosion proof device without the need of a junction box. The cable was also used in fire alarm systems when the specifications stated that the alarm had to operate for a certain amount of minutes even when the alarms cables were in direct contact with the flames of a fire. In the trade this type of cable is known as Pyrotenax.

Difference between Sheathed and Shielded cable?

Sheathed cabling normally contains 4 sets of wires (like normal Ethernet cable) with a covering of a plasticy - exterior material. Normally this is PVC but many newer types of cabling use other sheathing materials - especially for cabling designed for fire codes. Shielded cabling commonly includes a thin metal foil surrounding the wire pairs under the plastic sheath. This greatly increases the EMI resistance of the cable when it is terminated correctly. Many shielded cables also include an extra wire that "grounds out" the shielding foil. With terminators that include a metal body you can connect the extra, grounding wire to this terminator shield and ensure the highest amount of protection.Shielded cable is recommended for areas with high levels of interference (such as industrial settings) which may cause signal degradation. For most common household uses, sheathed cable is perfectly appropriate.
