Cabling
Techniques |

|
UNILAY or BUNCH:
Conductors of any number are twisted together with the same lay direction
and cable lay length. Bunch construction will not have a well defined
geometric configuration and may have a varible cross-section. A Unilay
construction will have a well defined geometric configuration and a defined
cross-section. This type of cabling technique is usually used on static
designs. |

CONCENTRIC
CONTRA-HELICAL:
Conductors that are surrounded by well defined layers of helically laid
conductors. Each layer has a reversed lay direction and an increasing lay
length in each succeeding layer. This type of cabling technique is usually
used on continuous flex designs. |

CONCENTRIC UNILAY:
Conductors that are surrounded by one or more layers of helically laid
conductors with the same direction or lay and increasing lay length in each
succeeding layer. This type of cabling technique is usually used on
torsional flex designs. |
