Construction

The power conductors, insulated green ground, and signal conductor assembly are cabled together and a binder tape bearing the print legend is wrapped around the cabled assembly. A bare aluminum grounding/bonding conductor is located outside the binder tape, has the same lay as the insulated conductors, and maintains intimate contact with the overall armor. Green aluminum interlocking armor is applied over the cabled assembly. Yellow stripe/blocks are printed on the outside of the armor and circuit identifying print is applied on every fourth yellow stripe/block. The cable is also available with steel armor or with an overall PVC jacket.
