Claims9
A flexible woven jacket assembly encasing a woven electrical transmission cable or cables of generally flat configuration providing protection against abrasion and for maintaining conductors of stacked cables generally fixed in their relative positions while affording a flexible package comprising:
- at least one of said transmission cables;
- an elongated cover strip constructed from warp and fill strands woven together to form a generally solid outer cover fabric;
- said cover strip woven to define a pair of longitudinal marginal edges;
- a strip of fastener hook tape carried adjacent one of said marginal edges;
- a strip of fastener loop tape carried adjacent said other marginal edges;
- said fastener tapes securing said marginal edges of said woven cover strip wrapped about the transmission cable;
- and
- said woven cover strip and fastener tapes having a sufficient width to afford adjustability to enable the jacket circumference of said cover strip to vary and said marginal edges be joined to accommodate a variety of sizes and numbers of said transmission cables such as when in a stacked configuration.
