Hi all,
to make the german expressions clearer, I think we generally use the wording
"litz wire" for many thin wires bundled without insulation between wires, mostly
in standard electric installations, just to have the advantage that the litz can
be bend easier than a thick wire of the same diameter.
For RF purposes we have the other expression "RF litz" or in german "HF-Litze".
In this case all the fine wires are coated with varnish to allow rf currents
also run in the inner portions of the litz wire, where it would not go without
this insulation.
OK?

... no, unfortunately not ... seems to be just the name "Litze" that was
adopted from the "Litz" wire ... but as I said .. still does the job at LF!
