Abstract
A liquid detection laminate, an electrical cable including the liquid detection laminate, and methods for the same are described herein. The liquid detection laminate may include an electrically insulating substrate, a hydrophilic layer disposed adjacent the electrically insulating substrate and forming a laminate with the electrically insulating substrate, and a conductive wire interposed between the electrically insulating substrate and the hydrophilic layer. The electrical cable may include a cable core, an outer sheath disposed radially outward of the cable core, and the liquid detection laminate interposed between the cable core and the outer sheath.
