Pyro MI specified for fire rated wiring applications in
Edinburgh’s St Giles Cathedral
 Pyrotenax mineral-insulated (Pyro MI) cables have been employed at
St Giles’ Cathedral, Edinburgh in a programme of interior works
which included the installation of new interior lighting, bespoke
chandeliers and a fire detection system. Specified by the consultant
Arup and installed by FES Ltd of Stirling, the light duty and heavy
duty MI cables have been supplied through the Edinburgh branch of
Ross Electrical in a sandstone colour, sympathetic to the fabric of
the building.
MI is recognised as the highest performing fire-rated cable
technology and Pyro MI cable has undergone Lloyds Register witness
testing under the most stringent fire test methodology of BS
7346-6:2005 - successfully achieving the highest performance
requirement of 120 minutes survival time for fire fighting systems
(FF120). This ensures that it comes with an assurance for those
responsible for cable specification and purchase that they are
meeting the requirements of the Regulatory Reform Order (RRO) in
regard to the material supply.
In addition to its superior fire survival performance, the totally
inorganic construction of mineral insulated cable gives it stability
and durability. It ideal for applications in large historic
buildings of this type as it is also rodent resistant and
‘non-aging’ so will provide decades of maintenance-free service.
Also known as the High Kirk of Edinburgh, St Giles' Cathedral is the
historic City Church of Edinburgh standing on the Royal Mile between
Edinburgh Castle and the Palace of Holyroodhouse. It is a grade A
listed building at the centre of Edinburgh’s World Heritage site and
the interior refurbishment was undertaken with the help of a
Heritage Lottery Fund grant.
