Abstract
An electrical conductor which has an electrically conducting fiber including carbon nanotubes and/or a graphene nanoribbon and a layer of insulating material coated around the electrically conducting fiber. The insulating material substantially does not penetrate the electrically conducting fiber, or penetrates the electrically conducting fiber only to a depth that leaves a continuous conductive path along a remaining part of the electrically conducting fiber.
