Abstract
Abstract A cable in which a dielectric core is surrounded by a plurality of bundles of wire strands with the wire strands forming each bundle being twisted in a first direction and the bundles being twisted around the solid conductor in a direction opposite the first direction. Insulation means extend around the bundles of wire strands. A pair of cables configured in the above manner are provided to carry the positive and negative signals between a power source and a load.
