摘要： Particular embodiments generally relate to a heating cable that includes an insulated heating element. The bus wires may be bared in that they do not have an insulation jacket surrounding each of the bus wires. For example, insulation on the bus wires that electrically separates bus wires from heating element 106 is not included. Instead, insulation is included on and surrounds the heating element. A heating element is includes one or more resistance wires and an insulating layer surrounding the one or more resistance wires. For the resistance wires to electrically contact the bus wires, the insulating layer is bared at a plurality of node areas to expose the one or more resistance wires from the insulating layer. The one or more resistance wires are electrically coupled to the bus wires at the plurality of node areas to create a plurality of resistance zones for generating heat.
