Abstract

A woven electrical transmission cable includes a plurality of longitudinally extending conductor and ground wires which are substantially parallel with one another. These conductor and ground wires are woven together with a number of insulating fiber strands to define a woven pattern wherein the conductor and ground wires define an undulating shape. The amplitude and frequency of the respective undulations are approximately equal if not equal. The woven cable also includes a longitudinally extending warp member at each edge thereof which has a breaking strength which is at least twenty (20) times and preferably fifty (50) times the breaking strength of a conductor or ground wire.
