20090084575 | Indicia-Marked Electrical Cable - An electrical cable includes a sheath that envelops at least two internal conductors, and an indicia visible on the sheath is representative of the internal conductor. | 04-02-2009 |
20090114418 | WIRE WITH CONVERTIBLE OUTER JACKET AND METHOD THEREOF - A multi-jacket electrical cable that includes an inner insulation jacket wrapped around or extruded onto one or more electrical conductors and an outer insulation jacket that is wrapped around or extruded onto the inner jacket and is removable therefrom. Each jacket includes a different characteristic such as color, texture of pattern. A user of the electrical cable of the present invention can designate the wire to be used for a particular purpose, such as a ground wire, or a high voltage wire, by removing a jacket until an inner jacket is exposed, where the exposed jacket has a characteristic that matches the user's desired intention for the wire. | 05-07-2009 |
20090139743 | Wire/cable identification device - An electric wire identifier that includes an anti-short bushing in the form of an electrical insulating ring-like insert fitted onto the end of a metal or armored clad cable that defines the terminal end of the armored cable or into the end of an electrical connector that is generally inserted through a knock-out hole of an electric box or panel, and which bushing includes an integral extension or surface capable of retaining thereon suitable identifying indicia that is rendered visible throughout the lifetime of the electrical installation. In another form of the invention, the wire identifiers, in the form of a label or tag having a loop attachment that may be arranged in a tree or roll whereby the individual labels or tags can be readily dispensed as needed. | 06-04-2009 |
20090188694 | FLEXIBLE CONDUIT WITH VISUAL IDENTIFICATION - An electrical conduit having a flexible metal tubular structure having an outer sheathing and an interior hollow area. An electrical conductor is housed in the interior hollow area. A visible indicia is applied to the outer sheathing and extends along at least a portion of the metal tubular structure where the visible indicia corresponds to at least one characteristic of the conduit or electrical conductor housed therein. | 07-30-2009 |
20100294533 | Shielded electric wire and method of identifying shielded wire - A shielded electric wire | 11-25-2010 |
20100307789 | CORD - The cord has a flexible reinforcing core wire. The reinforcing core wire is formed of one or a plurality of reinforcing fibers such as aramid fibers. A plurality of (for example, three) insulated conductors are twisted together around the reinforcing core wire. The insulated conductors are respectively colored into different colors to be distinguished from each other, and include a plurality of insulated wires twisted together. Each of the insulated wires is formed of a polyurethane copper wire or the like whose conductor is insulation-coated with resin. An insulating outer coating member coats the periphery of the reinforcing core wire and the three insulated conductors. The insulating outer coating member has a substantially circular tube shape in section, and is formed of soft synthetic resin. Accordingly, the cord is reduced in diameter and weight. | 12-09-2010 |
20110024157 | WIRING HARNESS - To provide a wiring harness of which electric wire is surely distinguishable by preventing a marker formed on an outer surface of a cover of the electric wire from at least partially being removed. | 02-03-2011 |
20110114360 | VISUAL CABLE IDENTIFICATION - A cable is made visually identifiable. The visually identifiable cable includes an electrically illuminable outer sheathing. At least one internal tangible transmission interface medium is internally disposed in the electrically illuminable outer sheathing. | 05-19-2011 |
20130186671 | SLEEVES FOR ELECTRICAL WIRING AND METHODS OF IDENTIFYING ELECTRICAL WIRING - A covering or sleeve can include an insulating material, such as a polymeric material, that is permanently printed with indicia identifying the particular circuit to which a wire belongs. In an embodiment, the sleeve is printed to permanently mark the sleeve with indicia identifying the room or space the covered electrical wire is sourcing. The sleeves can optionally be color-coded as a secondary identification system according to known color-coding in the industry. The printed sleeves can be sold individually and then subsequently applied to the electrical wires at the electrical source, such as an electrical box. In another embodiment, wiring can be covered with the printed sleeves and packaged individually, or in a set, such as on an electrical panel. In other embodiments, methods of identifying electrical wiring are disclosed. | 07-25-2013 |
