Cable and method for manufacturing the cable

摘要

#CMT# #/CMT# A cable sheath layer encloses insulated conductors, and is formed from a light-transmitting synthetic plastic material. Visible markings are arranged on the cable sheath layer opposite locations at which the cable sheath layer and one of the insulation layers may be severed by an insulation-piercing contact to effect electrical engagement with a selected conductor (2). #CMT# : #/CMT# An independent claim is included for a method for producing an electrical cable. #CMT#USE : #/CMT# Electrical cable. #CMT#ADVANTAGE : #/CMT# Enables reliably indicating where one can electrically engage a selected conductor by an insulation piercing contact. #CMT#DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS : #/CMT# The figure shows the perspective view of the cable when in the initial unmarked condition. 1 : Outer sheath 2 : Conductor 3 : Outer insulation layer 6 : Cable sheath strip 7 : Twisted unit.
