Abstract
A flat cable for electrically connecting a fixed body and a rotating body which can be freely rotated coaxially to this fixed body is disclosed. The flat cable includes a first insulating film on which a first set of separate plated conductor strips is disposed, and a second insulating film on which a second set of separate plated conductor strips is disposed. The first and second sets of separate plated conductor strips are sandwiched between the first and second insulating films to form multiple layers. The first set of separate plated conductor strips on the first insulating film and the second set of separate plated conductor strips on the second insulating film are layered to be electrically separated from each other.
