Is PTFE the same as Teflon?

Yes – Teflon is a trademarked brand name for PTFE so they have the same qualities.

Where should I use a PTFE insulated wire?

PTFE is very resistant to solvents like oil and fuel. This makes wires coated in it suitable for applications that need lubrication. It's also ideal for use in humid environments.
