An insulated electric cord (102) comprises an elongate covering arrangement (12) and at least two elongate electrical conductors (14, 16) held within the covering arrangement (12). The insulated electric cord (102) further comprises an elongate load bearing member (20) held within the covering arrangement (12). The insulated electric cord (102) further comprises an elongate flexible cutting member (22) held within the covering arrangement (12). The elongate electrical conductors (14, 16), the elongate load bearing member (20), and the elongate flexible cutting member (22) extend longitudinally through the covering arrangement (12). The elongate flexible cutting member (22) extends through the covering arrangement (12) adjacent the elongate load bearing member (20). The cutting member (22) is capable of cutting the covering arrangement (12), thereby allowing a portion of the load bearing member (20) to be extracted from the covering arrangement (12).

An electromechanical cable that is crush-resistant and torque balanced is provided as well as a method for manufacturing a crush-resistant and torque balance electromechanical cable. The cable can include a core having a conductor surrounded by a first jacket layer, a second jacket layer surrounding the first jacket layer, a first armor layer surrounding second jacket layer, a third jacket layer surrounding the first armor layer, a second armor layer surrounding the third jacket layer, and a fourth jacket layer surrounding the second armor layer. The first armor layer can be constructed as a plurality of wires and compressed partially into the second jacket layer. The second armor layer can be constructed from a plurality of three-wire strands and/or single wires and compressed partially into the third jacket layer. The three-wire strands can be symmetric or asymmetric and can be compacted or non-compacted.

A cable that has a cable core with a first armor wire layer and a second armor wire layer. The second armor wire layer is segregated from the first armor wire layer, and an outer jacket is disposed about the second armor wire layer.
