Abstract: A flexible multi-conductor cable and a method of manufacturing a flexible multi-conductor cable, wherein the cable is adapted for use, particularly, in a mechanical cable track type lifting device. The cable includes two or more insulated conductors surrounded by a dual layer jacket. The dual layer jacket includes an inner layer having a TPE material with a higher tensile modulus, and an outer layer having a TPE material with a lower tensile modulus. The material of the cable is selected so that the cable is capable of surviving the external physical requirements of a mechanical cable track, as well as to prevent the transfer of the wiping effect onto the conductors.

Abstract: An electrical cable for carrying a power signal and for detecting an arcing current or a leakage current within the cable. The electrical cable has a ground wire, a first conductor, a second conductor, and a first shield encasing the first conductor. The first shield has a plurality of threads laid in parallel and spiral wrapped around the first conductor. A lead is formed at an end of the first conductor from the plurality of threads wound about each other at the end of the first conductor. The lead is coupled to an arc current or a leakage detection circuit.
