POWER CABLE SPLICE SLEEVE AND INSTALLATION METHOD

摘要

A connector permitting the surface splicing of two electric power cables in adverse weather conditions provides a sufficient dielectric cover to prevent shorting or grounding out of the connection. A dielectric tube or sleeve having means for either a threaded or snapping connection with a cap, which is fitted over one or two electric power cables. The body after being filled with dielectric grease or silicone provides a radiused surface at each end to permit the cables to be inserted or removed quickly and efficiently. The capped end or ends can then be further weatherproofed with an additional exterior cap over the tube.
