Note 2 to entry: Parallel core cable: cable constructed with one or more cores of parallel-laid wires surrounded by one layer of helically laid wires. Note 3 to entry: Unidirectional cable: all layers have a common direction of lay, with increase in length of lay for each successive layer. Note 4 to entry: Unilay cable: all layers have a common length and direction of lay.
