Abstract

A heating cable for use with an electric underblanket the cable being of the type in which a sensor wire is employed coextensive with a heater wire and separated by a layer of meltable insulating material so that overheat conditions are sensed by contact between the sensor wire and the heater. A number of helically wound coextensive wires cooperate with switching means to provide overheat temperature sensing at various wattage levels of heating.
