Does foam type insulation have an effect on n/m type wiring in wooden structures' as far as heat dissipation' when the conductor is loaded, and it is completely encapsulated in foam e.g. in stud walls? I see this being done in residences much more often now .Is this a fire hazzard?Should there be special derating for these conditions? Should the wire being used in wood structures in these conditions be of a different type?
