A cable having low values for resistance, inductance, and capacitance. The cable includes a plurality of conductors for each signal or leg, which may be configured as a braid of three subsets of braids of bonded pairs of insulated conductors. The bonded pairs may be twisted or untwisted, in close proximity such that inductance is reduced via magnetic field cancellation. Each leg may be separate and parallel, rather than interwoven or braided together, increasing the distance between the two signals and reducing capacitance. The legs may be positioned close to each other, such that their magnetic fields cancel to further reduce inductance.

A continuously transposed conductor (CTC) cable may include a plurality of electrically insulated strands arranged in two stacks with the plurality of strands successively transposed between the two stacks. Each strand may include a conductor and insulation formed at least partially around the conductor. Additionally, each strand may have a cross-sectional area that is less than approximately 0.0030 square inches. As a result, the CTC cable may be suitable for use in electrical devices relatively smaller than those associated with conventional CTC cables.

A terminal connecting method including: removing a insulation film by a predetermined length from one end of a litz wire; inserting to a pressure fixing part a terminal part of the litz wire; compressing a first portion of the pressure fixing part with a first compression force to cause plastic deformation of an entirety of the pressure fixing part, and to temporarily fix the terminal part of the litz wire to the pressure fixing part; compressing a second portion of the pressure fixing part with a second compression force greater than the first compression force to locally cause plastic deformation of the pressure fixing part and the litz wire, the second portion being a part of the first portion; and pouring molten solder from a front end side of the pressure fixing part to firmly fix the litz wire to the terminal metal fitting.

A bus bar (1) comprises: a laminated conductive wire (20) formed by arranging side by side in the longitudinal direction a first plate-shaped conductive wire (21) formed by spirally winding stripe conductors (11, 12) mutually adjacent in the width direction while bringing the opposing inner surfaces closer to each other, and a second plate-shaped conductive wire (22) formed by spirally winding the stripe conductors (11, 12) in the direction opposite the direction of the first conductive wire (21) while bringing the opposing inner surfaces closer to each other, and overlapping these wires (21, 22) so that the outer surfaces in the width direction face each other; and terminals (30) joined to the first conductive wire (21) and the second conductive wire (22) at both ends of the laminated conductive wire (20).

A Litz wire terminal assembly includes a wire bundle having a plurality of electrically conductive strands extending between a first end and a second end to define a length. Each strand includes an insulative cover having a proximate cover end at the first end and a distal cover end at the second end. The distal cover end is flush with the second end. The Litz wire terminal assembly further includes a ferrule on the wire bundle. The ferrule has a distal ferrule end at the second end of the conductive strands.

A conductor for conducting electric current has along its length at least two main sections comprising at least a first main section and a second main section and at least one transposing junction connecting adjacent ones of the main sections The conductor comprises several partial conductors comprising at least a first partial conductor and a second partial conductor wherein in the first main section the first partial conductor has an outer diameter which is larger than an outer diameter of the second partial conductor and, in the second main section the second partial conductor has an outer diameter which is larger than an outer diameter of the first partial conductor.
