<p>A casing for a joint between a pair of electrical cable ends which have been prepared in a conventional manner, the conductors of the cable ends being electrically and mechanically joined and covered with insulation. The casing comprises two mating halfcasings of a plastics material having a band, e.g., netting or foil, of good conductivity metal embedded therein and covered thereby, the half-casings enclosing the joint. The band is connected to the cable screens by flexible conductors, and the casing has tapered ends which receive the ends of the cables and which, preferably, are adhesively secured to the cables. The half-casings are held together by clips, and the casing is filled with a resin after application to the cable ends.</p> |
