H. Sealed Splice Configurations for Unshielded Wires and Cables - One or Two Wires to One or
Two Wires - Sleeve
For the conditions that are applicable for:
• The repair of a wire or a cable with a splice, refer to Subject 20-10-13
• The selection of the correct sealed splice configuration, refer to Paragraph 1.C.
(1) Make a selection of a butt splice from Table 12 or Table 14.
Make sure that the splice has the smallest CAU range that can accept the total CAU of the
conductor.
Refer to Paragraph 1.D. for the procedure to calculate the CAU of the conductor.
(2) Find the crimp barrel size of the splice from Table 12 or Table 14.
(3) Make a selection of a crimp tool from:
• Table 43 for BACT12C() splices
• Table 44 for NAS1387-() splices
• Table 45 for BACS52K() splices
• Table 45 for Raychem D-609-0() splices.
(4) Make a selection of a sleeve with 1 hole in the wire seal from Table 18.
Make sure that:
• The sleeve can make a seal on the number of wires in one end of the splice
• The sleeve has the smallest diameter that can be moved easily on the wires, if the sleeve is
a DWP-125 sleeve.
(5) If the sleeve is a DWP-125 sleeve, cut the sleeve to the necessary length.
Make sure that the sleeve extends a minimum of 0.8 inch farther than each end of the splice.
(6) Put the sleeve on all the wires of one end of the splice assembly.
(7) Remove the necessary length of insulation from the end of each wire.
