Flexible braided electrical cable bundle

Abstract

A flexible braided wiring harness including a protective sleeve that separates a braided layer from a wire bundle such that the braided layer does not apply a compressive force to the wire bundle. Though the braided layer is tightly braided around the protective sleeve, the lack of compressive force on the wire bundle allows the individual wires of the wire bundle to slide relative to each other when the wiring harness bends. The freedom of the individual wires to slide relative to each other gives the wiring harness improved flexibility.
