An electrical jumper cable comprising a plurality of spaced metallic conductors, each conductor having a flexible area and integrally formed rigid terminal ends, is provided. Starting with a metallic sheet having a thickness approximating that required for the conductor flexible areas one or more mesas of, thickness approximating that required for the terminal ends are formed on the edge regions of the sheet.
