A splice case housing electrical splices between two cables where the splices are immersed in an oil sealant having a specific gravity greater than water. The case includes holes located above the splices for receiving the electrical cables. Since the oil is heavier than water, if water were to enter the splice case, it would be above the oil and splices, thereby causing a hydraulic force on the oil, causing an even more intimate seal of the oil around the splices. |
