Claims16
A cable, comprising:
- a cable structure comprising a stranded wire formed by stranding a plurality of stranded conductors;
- an inclusion that is more deformable than said stranded conductor,
- wherein said inclusion has a Shore hardness of 45±5, and
- wherein said plurality of stranded conductors are annularly arranged so as to cover said inclusion, with said plurality of stranded conductors being spaced apart from each other, when viewed in cross-section;
- and
- an insulating layer arranged on the circumference of said stranded conductors,
- wherein said stranded conductors are in contact with said inclusion and said insulating layer and each have an outer diameter greater than that of said inclusion.

A cable, comprising:
- a cable structure comprising a master stranded wire formed by stranding a plurality of slave stranded wires each of which is made up of a plurality of stranded conductors;
- an inclusion that is more deformable than said slave stranded wire,
- wherein said inclusion has a Shore hardness of 45±5, and
- wherein said plurality of slave stranded wires are annularly arranged so as to cover said inclusion, with said plurality of slave stranded wires being spaced apart from each other, when viewed in cross-section;
- and
- an insulating layer arranged on the circumference of said slave stranded wires,
- wherein said slave stranded wires are in contact with said inclusion and said insulating layer and each have an outer diameter greater than that of said inclusion.
