An electrical lead (150) which includes a lumen defining member (162), the lumen defining member (162) having a discontinuity (158) along its length to create a proximal part (154) and a distal part (152), a plurality of conductors (156) carried on an outer surface of the lumen defining member (162), the conductors (156) being separated from the lumen defining member (162) at the discontinuity (158) to enable access to be gained to a lumen defined by the distal part (152), the plurality of conductors (156) electrically bridging the discontinuity (158), a covering (160) over the plurality of conductors (156), the covering (160) being removed at the discontinuity (158) to enable access to be gained to the conductors (156) at the discontinuity (158) at least one electrode (148) carried on the covering (160) at a distal part (152) of the lumen defining member (162).
