If you had put the (or a) link here, or a brief snippet of the definition of TIEV, I, and perhaps others, could also have profited from your Googling skills. ;-)
I suppose this is OT, but I'm not marking it as such.
For such a simple search it's obvious the OP hasn't bothered to do anything for himself. Just expects the answer on a plate. Which no doubt would be copied in to homework answers.
Sorry if you think I'm cynical.

Ok, after my last post I did some looking. Not very good looking, but I spent definitely more than 30 seconds. I found places that would sell me TIEV cable, I found something that indicated that TIEV cable was good for indoor / outdoor use (and, iiuc, usually used as the "incomer" cable from the telcos terminal block to inside your house, it is available in (at least) 2 conductor and 4 conductor versions, but, in my brief look, I didn't see anything that defined what the "initials" (acronym?) TIEV signified.
(Sometimes I get lucky with google, yesterday I didn't ;-)
If English (well, American) was not my native language, I'm fairly sure I'd have had more trouble.
For the benefit of others, here is the construction spec from that page (and a general statement)--there is other information on that page:
(BTW, the TIEV doesn't seem to be indicative of the insulation, construction, or whatever.)
