Abstract:
A method of splicing a power cable used to supply electricity to down hole submersible pumps uses a pair of annular armored seal members that are slid over the ends of an insulated electrical conductor being spliced together. Each armored seal member has a plurality of O-ring seals on one end thereof and a plurality of openings in the side thereof and are used to cover and protect a crimped conductor being spliced together. The method and apparatus allow a pair of spliced electrical cables to be used in an adverse environment.
