ABSTRACT In a simple and inexpensive method of manufacturing a composite flexible overhead electric and optical conductor having a flexible optical waveguide loosely housed in a bore extending throughout the length of the conductor, the flexible electric conductor, without a flexible optical guide loosely housed in the bore, is wound around the hub of a cable drum in such a way that each end of the wound conductor is exposed and accessible. The flexible optical guide is then accommodated in the bore of the wound conductor by introducing a leading end of the optical guide into the end of the bore at one exposed end 11 of the wound conductor and by propelling the optical guide along the bore of the wound conductor by fluid drag of a gaseous medium which is passed through the bore in the desired direction of advance at such a pressure that the optical guide is carried along the bore until the optical guide is loosely housed in and throughout the length of the bore of the wound conductor.
