Abstract: The present invention relates to a liquid leakage detector line for detecting the leakage, if occurs, of a liquid such as sulfuric acid or strong alkali from a transportion pipe line or a storage tank. The liquid leakage detector line comprises: a pair of wiry electrodes each including a conductor covered with an insulator layer made of macromolecular material including an ester bond, the wiry electrodes being disposed substantially in parallel with each other; and a liquid-absorbent material covering these wiry electrodes. The liquid-absorbent material may be a braided body layer made of liquid-absorbent yarn which is disposed outside of the pair of wiry electrodes, or may be a braided body layer similar to the first-mentioned braided body layer which is disposed at the outer periphery of each of the wiry electrodes. If a sulfuric acid or alkali liquid leaks, the liquid-absorbent material covering the wiry electrodes absorbs such leakage liquid.

Abstract: This invention provides an improved structure of a floor cable used, for example, for a telephone cord in an office room, and also a method of producing such floor cable. The floor cable comprises a plurality of insulated core wires within a plastic cable sheath.Each of the insulated core wires has a plurality of folded portions along the wire length, and the cable sheath for the core wires has such cross section that a plurality of radial fins are provided on the thin circumference. Thus, the ripping out of the sheath for drawing out the desired wire to connect or branch the floor cable can be easily carried out.
