ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a flame retardant electrical cable able to meet or exceed the flame spread requirements of Underwriters Laboratories Tunnel Flame UL 910 while minimizing or eliminating halogen, particularly fluorine content from the cable by utilizing a first non-fluocarbon polymer and compositions based thereupon for use in making one of the conductor insulation or the protective jacket of the cable and a second non-fluorocarbon polymer or fluorocarbon polymer which may be the same as or different from the first polymer and compositions based thereupon for use in making the other of the conductor insulation or the jacket of the cable where the first and second polymers and compositions based thereupon have a composite Steiner Index of: ##EQU1## where: S.I. is less than about 3500;
