The flexible wiring conduit forms a protected space that contains the cable. The flexible wiring conduit protects a cable from damage by forces that are exterior to the protected space formed by the flexible wiring conduit. The cable inserts through the protected space. The flexible wiring conduit is a composite prism structure. The flexible wiring conduit is a bimodal flexible structure. The bimodal flexible structure of the flexible wiring conduit allows the flexible wiring conduit to bent to follow a desired cabling path. The flexible wiring conduit incorporates a plurality of end fittings, a plurality of rigid tube structures, and a plurality of flexible tube structures. The plurality of end fittings, the plurality of rigid tube structures, and the plurality of flexible tube structures are interconnected to form the flexible wiring conduit. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A flexible wiring conduit comprising a plurality of end fittings, a plurality of rigid tube structures, and a plurality of flexible tube structures;
