Mica for Nuclear-Plant Cables
Halogen-free materials for circuit integrity per IEEE 383, IEC 60331. Stock in Barcelona, taping service.
Mica Tapes for Circuit Integrity
Mica withstands temperatures above 700°C without losing its dielectric capability. It is the material that allows cables to keep circuit integrity during a fire per IEC 60331 and IEEE 383. We supply muscovite mica (standard, maximum dielectric strength) and phlogopite (higher thermal resistance and flexibility).
Muscovite Mica FR80M28
Maximum dielectric strength for tests up to 950°C. Standard grade IEC 60331. Halogen-free.

Phlogopite Mica (FR-P series)
Higher thermal resistance up to 1000°C and mechanical flexibility. For long exposure. Halogen-free.

1070A aluminium for short-circuit management
Medium- and high-voltage cables distributing energy within the plant require metallic shields to manage short-circuit currents and ensure earthing. We supply 1070A aluminium in thicknesses from 200 to 500 µm, with elongation above 15%.
EMI Shielding for Instrumentation Cables
CU/PET and AL/PET laminates
Instrumentation and control systems — neutron detectors, temperature sensors, reactor protection system — operate with low-level signals extremely sensitive to interference. Copper/polyester for maximum EMI effectiveness, aluminium/polyester as the standard solution.
Copper/Polyester (CU/PET)
Maximum EMI effectiveness for critical nuclear-instrumentation signals. Cu >99.5%.

Aluminium/Polyester (AL/PET)
Standard EMI solution for control cables. Multiple configurations. Lubricated version available.

Insulation between winding layers
The power and distribution transformers of the plant require insulation between winding layers. Kraft electrical paper provides dielectric insulation and compatibility with mineral oils.
