A braided part connection structure includes a conductive braid and a conductive member electrically connected and fixed to the braid and made of a conductive plate material. The conductive member includes a braid joining portion. The braid joining portion includes, at a part of the conductive member in a longitudinal direction of the conductive member, a plurality of openings formed at intervals with each other along a direction intersecting the longitudinal direction and a welded portion defined by two adjacent openings of the plurality of openings. The braid joining portion is provided on the braid in an overlapping manner and the welded portion is laser-welded onto the braid.

A power cable has a cable core comprising at least one conductor with an insulating system and a water barrier surrounding the cable core. The water barrier comprises a helically wound strength bearing layer interconnected by a low melting point material.

The present disclosure describes various devices and methods for the reconstruction or restoration of a metallic shield of a cable, which provide a holding feature for simplifying the installation of an electrically-conductive member on the metallic shield and improving the reliability of the connection. Both factory-supplied and field-installable holding features are described.

Disclosed is an armored cable assembly may include a plurality of conductors and a metal sheath disposed over the plurality of conductors. The metal sheath may have a plurality of revolutions extending helically along a lengthwise axis, each of the plurality of revolutions including a first section having a curved profile, a second section extending from the first section, the second section having a planar profile, and a third section extending from the second section. The third section may include a free end angled towards an interior cavity of the metal sheath, the free end extending past a plane defined by a bottom most point of the first section of an adjacent revolution, the plane extending perpendicular to the second section.

Provided is a combination cable for a vehicle that is capable of reducing noise interference and cross-talk between twisted pair wires. The combination cable for a vehicle includes a wire bundle and a sheath covering the wire bundle. The wire bundle includes a two-core first twisted pair wire, a two-core second twisted pair wire, a one-core first wire, and a one-core second wire. When viewed in cable cross-section, the wire bundle has the first twisted pair wire disposed on one side of a center line that runs from a center of the first wire to a center of the second wire, and has the second twisted pair wire disposed on the other side of the center line, and the first twisted pair wire and the second twisted pair wire are separated from each other.
