Abstract: Electrical cables formed from at least one insulated conductor, a layer of inner armor wires disposed adjacent the insulated conductor, and a layer of shaped strength members disposed adjacent the outer periphery of the first layer of armor wires. A polymeric material is disposed in interstitial spaces formed between the inner armor wires and the layer of shaped strength members, and the polymeric material is further disposed in interstitial spaces formed between the inner armor wire layer and insulated conductor. The polymeric material serves as a continuously bonded layer which also separates and encapsulates the armor wires forming the inner armor wire layer wire layer.
