A fire protective blanket construction providing multiple time protection for application to electrical conduit and cable trays to preserve operation of electrical circuitry carried by the cables in the event of exposure to fire. Comprising the prefabricated fire resistant blanket are back-to-back blanket sections separated by a moisture impervious metal foil. Disposed within the outer of the blanket section on the exterior side of the foil is a transversely extending envelope containing a selected thickness of trihydrated alumina in powdered form. When exposed to high temperature, the trihydrated alumina emits a steam vapor for protecting the article to which the blanket has been applied for a time period correlated to the thickness and other thermal properties of the individual elements comprising the blanket.

A flexible fire protection covering for providing time determined fire protection to an electrical article, said covering comprising: an inner blanket means of thermal insulating composition adapted to be placed contiguous to the surface of an article to be protected; an outer blanket means of thermal insulating composition overlying said inner blanket means; an amount of powdered hydrous oxide composition sufficient to emit a gaseous water vapor for a desired period of time upon exposure to surrounding temperatures of about 446°F. and above, said composition being confined within said outer blanket means; and a moisture impervious means disposed between said outer blanket means and said inner blanket means, which operates to shield said inner blanket means from vapor released by said powdered hydrous oxide composition.
