Abstract
An apparatus is provided for electroplating wire cable having a plastic sheath which has been made conductive. The apparatus comprises a T-tube containing one or more anodes having a geometric configuration which creates an electric field substantially symmetric about any point on the axis of the T-tube along which the cable passes during the plating operation. Means are provided for cathode contact, for advancing the cable through the apparatus, and for maintaining a proper level of plating solution.
