Abstract
A metal clad cable for healthcare facilities including a first ground conductor, a phase conductor in contact with the first ground conductor, a neutral conductor positioned in contact with the first ground conductor and the phase conductor, a control conductor assembly including a first control conductor and a second control conductor positioned in contact with the phase conductor and the neutral conductor in a valley between the phase conductor and the neutral conductor. The control conductor assembly, the first ground, the phase conductor and the neutral conductor are wrapped in a binder tape forming a core. A second ground conductor is positioned outside the binder tape of the core located away from the control conductor assembly with no contact with the control conductor assembly, and an interlock armor disposed over the core and the second ground conductor, the second ground conductor is maintained in contact with the interlock armor.
