sometimes there is a rating printed on the cords/cables like 60c. heat resistant cords/cables like silicone ones are much higher rating. a lot of cords laptop are just pvc type and will melt if touched with iron. My laptop cord has a stamp that says 60c which is too low to be heat resistant to the iron, and is made of the typical black pvc covering that is on many cables.
Silicone cables can be up to 200C heat resitant. other advantage of silicone cable is it is much more flexible than laptop cables.
