Abstract:
1. A shielded wire pair, comprising: Two insulated, flat wires, with substantially rectangular conductors with rounded edges and conformal insulation coatings forming parallel surfaces, bonded together with broad, flat, parallel surfaces of said flat wires abutted against each other over their length, forming a flat wire pair; two uninsulated wires of substantially circular cross-section, with one of the two uninsulated wires placed within a first groove formed between said conformal insulation coatings of said flat wires on a first edge side of the flat wire pair, and another of the two uninsulated wires placed within a second groove formed between said conformal insulation coatings of said flat wires on a second, opposite, edge side, said uninsulated wires of length equal to said flat wires and of diameter larger than a depth of said grooves; and a taut, close fitting conductive wrap around the flat wire pair and uninsulated round wires along their length, said conductive wrap conforming to broad, flat, outer surfaces of the flat wire pair, making physical and electrical contact with the two uninsulated wires, and creating cross-section air gaps between its conductive surface and insulation surfaces on said edge sides of the flat wire pair.
