Abstract
An overmolded electrical cable has a cable formed of a plurality of insulated conducting wires inside an insulating sheath. An overmolding material encapsulates the insulating sheath over at least part of a length thereof. The insulating sheath has an external surface formed with at least one groove accommodating the overmolding material. The sheath is formed with at least one fin in the at least one groove and the at least one fin forms an integral part of the sheath. A method for producing such an overmolded electrical cable is also disclosed.
