Abstract
A strippable, shielded electrical cable comprises a plurality of elongate, parallel-spaced electrical conductors encased in a casing of electrical insulation. At least one of the conductors, preferably located at a position other than at the marginal ends of the cable has an exposed portion free of casing material. An electrically conductive wire mesh shield overlies the casing and is in electrical contact with the exposed conductor portions. A top layer of electrical insulation overlies the wire mesh shield. A release sheet of electrical insulation is disposed between the conductive shield and the cover layer. A first adhesive is on the lower surface of the sheet facing the shield, the first adhesive being removably adhered to the metallic wire mesh shield. The first adhesive and a portion of the casing material are removably adhered to each other through the interstitial openings of the wire mesh. A second adhesive is disposed on the opposing surface of the release sheet facing the layer, the second adhesive being removably adhered to the cover layer.
