In known cables, the cable core is surrounded by a metal inner layer of a sheath and the inner layer is enclosed by a corrugated metal outer layer of the sheath. These cables do not provide a high level of resistance to corrosion and changes in temperature while providing good shielding of the electrical conductors, without the danger of contact corrosion between the two layers. In contrast to this, the present invention provides a cable with a common plastic sheath that surrounds electrical conductors that lie against the plastic sheath, an inner layer that is of copper, and an outer layer of the sheath that is formed from a stainless steel, and with an insulating layer that is provided between the inner layer and the outer layer. This has the advantage that it ensures good resistance to corrosion and temperature changes, permits particularly effective shielding of the electrical conductors and, in addition, prevents contact corrosion between the two layers of the sheath. The proposed cable is particularly suitable for use as power and control cables in ships.
