Abstract:
An electrical cable including conductors and an insulation member that covers a periphery of the conductors, and a technique of facilitating bending of the electrical cable in a plurality of directions. The electrical cable includes an electrical cable portion having a plurality of linear conductors configured to be connected to a common connection point, and a flexible insulation member configured to cover a periphery of the electrical cable portion. A middle portion between both ends of the electrical cable portion includes a non-twisted portion where at least some among the plurality of linear conductors are provided in a state spaced apart from each other. The insulation member covers a periphery of the non-twisted portion of the electrical cable portion, and fills gaps between the plurality of linear conductors in the non-twisted portion.
