ABSTRACT:
A dual-purpose energy transfer/signal transmission line including a hollow tubular cord containing on the inner surface thereof a thin layer explosive, the ignition of which creates a shock wave of energy perpetuated through the cord, in which the cord contains a fiber-optic or electrical signal transmission line of substantially smaller diameter than the ID of the explosive cord. The invention also includes junction blocks allowing ingress/egress of the signal line into and out of the explosive cord.
