1. A metal-clad cable assembly, comprising:
- a conductor assembly comprising at least two conductors disposed within a binder, the at least two conductors cabled together in a longitudinally non-twisted bundle under a conductive sheath forming an outermost layer of the cable assembly;
a bare grounding conductor cabled externally over the conductor assembly and disposed within an interstice formed between the at least two conductors; and
the conductive sheath disposed over the conductor assembly, the conductive sheath and bare grounding conductor forming an equipment grounding path.

Abstract
A metal-clad cable assembly includes a conductor assembly having at least two conductors and a binder disposed around the at least two conductors. The cable assembly also includes a bare grounding conductor disposed externally to the conductor assembly and at least partially within at least one interstice formed between the at least two conductors. A metal sheath is disposed around the conductor assembly and the bare grounding conductor. The binder exerts a force on the bare grounding conductor to position the bare grounding conductor against an interior surface of the metal sheath.
