Lie about work jerk performed using particular type of cable (5,5)

'type of cable' is the definition.

'lie about work jerk performed using particular' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'lie' could be 'fib' (fibbing is a kind of liing) and 'fib' is found in the answer.
'about' could be 're' ('re' means regarding or about) and 're' is found in the answer.
'work' could be 'op' (abbreviation for opus) and 'op' is found in the answer.
'jerk' could be 'tic' (jerking movement by the body) and 'tic' is found within the answer.
This accounts for all the letters.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
