METHOD FOR END TO END CONNECTION OF MINERAL INSULATED ELECTRIC CABLE AND ASSEMBLY FOR SAME

摘要

A method of end-to-end connection single- or multi-conductor electric cables having compressed mineral insulation and apparatus for end-to-end connection. The conductive metal sheath and the mineral insulation which covers the conductor(s) are removed along a short length at each cable end, a metal sleeve is fitted on the ends of the conductors, opposite each other, the sleeve is crimped on the ends of the conductors, a ring made of the same metal is fitted on each cable end, then a cylindrical connection sleeve with thin ends is fitted over the rings, then the ends of the cylindrical connection sleeve are crimped on the rings and on the ends of the cables.
