ABSTRACT:
A low profile electrical cable (10) suitable for use in an oil well where a high temperature corrosive atmosphere is present. The cable is comprised of a plurality of conductors (12) wherein each conductor is insulated by wrapping it in two heat-sealed layers (14) in an insulating material such as a polyimide plastic. The insulation layers around each conductor are then jacketed by an extruder layer (16) of a material which is mechanically and chemically stable to at least 400.degree. F. The insulated and jacketed conductors are disposed in a side-by-side parallel relationship and wrapped in a metal armor (20) such as a nickel-copper alloy. The physical properties of the insulating and jacketing materials allow very thin layers to be used for producing a cable which is smaller in overall dimensions than prior cables of comparable electrical capacity. Optionally, a braid (18) may be included around the jacket (16) of each conductor to enhance the overall strength characteristics of the cable.
