Method of transmitting electrical power

A method to reduce stray noise associated with the transmission of electrical power between a power source and a target, comprising the steps of:

• isolating the target from ground;
• providing a conduit including:
• a conductor for electrically connecting the power source and the target;
• a tubular core extending about the conductor and having an outer surface;
• braiding wound about the outer surface of the core, the braiding having first and second opposite ends;
• and
• a flexible outer jacket extending about the braiding, the outer jacket including first and second ends;
• mounting connectors on the core adjacent corresponding ends of the outer jacket;
• interconnecting a first end of the conductor to the power source and a second end of the conductor to the target;
• and
• interconnecting the first end of the braiding to a neutral point of the power source and the second end of the braiding to a grounding block on the target.

A method to reduce stray noise associated with the transmission of electrical power between a power source and a target, comprising the steps:

• interconnecting the power source and the target with a conductor such that the electrical power is transmitted thereon;
• positioning a shield about the conductor to prevent electromagnetic and radio frequency interference from passing therethrough;
• transmitting electrical power from the power source to the target on the conductor;
• and
• providing a low impedance path to a neutral point of the power source for the stray noise associated with the transmission of the electrical power, the low impedance path formed by:
• wrapping wire braiding about the shield, the wire braiding having first and second ends;
• interconnecting a first end of the wire braiding to the target;
• interconnecting a second end of the wire braiding to the neutral point of the power source;
• and
• mounting connectors on opposite ends of the shield for connecting the shield to the power source and the target.
