TITLE APPARATUS FOR SPLICING A SINGLE CONDUCTOR OF A MULTICONDUCTOR CABLE ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE The parted end portions of a metallic conductor comprising one of a plurality of conductors within a multi- conductor cable are coupled together by inserting one end portion having the insulation removed therefrom into an end portion of a metallic sleeve member. The sleeve member heaving a tubular body portion and flared end portions is fabricated from an electrically conductive deformable material. A recessed portion is spaced from one of the sleeve end portions on the body portion. A conductor end portion extends into the sleeve member end portion and is positioned in abutting relation with the recessed portion. The flared sleeve end portion overlaps the insulation on the conductor end portion. The other conductor end portion is extended into the opposite sleeve member end portion with the flared portion positioned in abutting, overlapping relation with the conductor insulation. The sleeve member end portions are then crimped into compressing contact with the conductor end portions thereby securing the end portions in spaced relation within the sleeve body portion. The metallic sleeve member has an electrical conductance equal to the electrical conductance of the spliced conductor to permit unimpeded current flow between the end portions of the conductor. The sleeve member is wrapped with insulating tape and then gathered with the undamaged conductors for wrapping the entire cable with insulation tape at the splice to expediently return the multiconductor cable to service. - 2 -
