ABSTRACT:
A cord has a jacket for containing wires. The jacket has a plurality of circular portions and a plurality of non-circular portions alternating with each other. The circular portions are substantially circular, and the non-circular portions are substantially non-circular, and may be in the shape of a "C" or "U". The "C" or "U" shape maintains the wires in a predetermined order. A method for forming cord includes alternately: (a) extruding a circular portion having a cross section that is substantially circular around a plurality of wires; and (b) extruding a non-circular portion having a cross section that is substantially non-circular around the plurality of wires. The extrusion is continuous, so that the non-circular portion is adjacent to the circular portion. The non-circular portion may be opened so that the conductors are arranged substantially in a line.
