Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1293992A2] Coaxial cable (1) comprising a first set (2) of conductors protected in a first insulating jacket (3), and a second set (4) of conductors positioned around this first jacket, and themselves protected by an insulating sheath (5) of the cable. The sheath is designed to be stripped so as to enable a local connection with an electrical instrument. This connection is possible inasmuch as the cable comprises at least one zone (19) at which the conductors of the second set of conductors are twisted according to a close twist pitch. Thus, when the cable is stripped at this zone, in sectioning the conductors arranged in this tight winding, two portions (22, 23) of conductors are cleared, and these portions of conductors can easily be connected with the instrument. <IMAGE>
