Abstract: This invention relates to a line guiding assembly comprising a line guiding trough and a line assembly guided therein which includes a plurality of ribbon cables held within an encapsulant and reinforcement channels. The line assembly forms a loop with a lower length and an upper length. A ribbon material either in a drum or coil is provided that fits inside the loop wherein the coil of ribbon material is between the upper and lower lengths of the line reinforced assembly and extends and retracts in the same direction as the movement of the loop and lengths of the assembly. The ribbon material is different from the material of the line assembly and is preferably stainless steel. A double ended system with two line assemblies operating in a single trough is also provided.
