1. A shielded electrical cable having improved flexibility and resistance to wrinkling on bending, said cable comprising:
- (a) at least one insulated electrical conductor;
(b) a flexible metal tape disposed in emcompassing relationship in the form of a shield about the electrical conductor;
(c) a coating of a copolymer of ethylene and a monomer having a reactive carboxyl group disposed on at least the outer surface of the shield;
(d) a covering disposed in emcompassing relationship about the coated shield, said covering made from a flexible or semi-rigid non-olefinic polymeric material; and
(e) an adhesive disposed intermediate the shield coating and the covering and adapted to bond them together.
