Patent 7750245 was granted and assigned to Nexans on July, 2010 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
A composite control cable has a polymer core and a plurality of strands of electrically conductive material extending in the longitudinal direction of the cable around said core. The polymer is selected from polymers presenting elongation at break that is greater than 7%, and traction strength such that the resultant traction strength of the cable is greater than a predetermined limit value.
