A cable termination for a mineral insulated electric cable, comprises a tube (21) of flexible electrically insulating material that is slit along its length at at least one position (29) on its circumference to divide the tube into at least two opposed portions (21', 21") that can be positioned about a cut-back sheath (S) of the cable and brought together to enclose the end region of the sheath. The tube has one end that is closed by an end wall (23) that has one or more throughbores (26) for allowing one or more conductors of the cable to extend through and beyond the termination. The termination also includes a collar (43) that can be located about the tube when, but only when, the opposed portions of the tube have been brought together. The collar (43) ensures that the tube has been correctly closed and that, once insta11ed, the termination cannot be accidentally opened.
