Abstract

A repairable cable assembly includes a corrugated metal tubing backshell secured at one end to the end of stiff preferably electrically shielding cable sleeve and at the other end to a coupling assembly which is detachable from a connector and retractable along wiring extending from the cable sleeve through axial collapse of the corrugated metal tubing to provide access to the connections of the wiring to electrical contacts housed in the connector. Where the cable sleeve is braided wire, a waterproof thermosetting polymer cover is provided over the braided wire and its connections to the corrugated metal tubing backshell. The coupling assembly can include a straight, right or other angle tubular member to which the corrugated tubing is secured.
