ABSTRACT

In a method for operating a cable (1), the cable (1) has a sensor (2) for
detecting a use of the cable (1), wherein sensor signals (3) are stored,
wherein a characteristic for the cable (1) is produced by means of the sensor
signals (3), wherein a plurality of characteristics are determined at
different times, wherein the characteristics are evaluated together. This
method can be used in a system having a cable (1), more particularly a
trailing cable, for electrical energy supply, wherein the trailing cable has a
sensor (2) in the cable (1).
