An insulated cable attachment device, made of an electrically insulating material, is connectable to a termination connector which is in turn connectable to a tap port for a cable television system. When an installer disconnects service to a subscriber's house, the signal is shut down to the tap port to which the subscriber drop cable is connected. The drop cable is disconnected from the tap port and a terminator connector is connected in its place on the tap port. The installer then installs the insulated cable attachment device onto the terminator connector before connecting the drop cable to the insulated cable attachment device, thereby preventing any difference in ground potentials between the terminal connector and the drop cable from being transmitted to the end of the drop cable near the house.
