Abstract

A split solder sleeve is provided with a conductor channel extending between open opposite ends of the sleeve and a longitudinal slot extending through the side wall of the sleeve into the channel and between the ends of the sleeve. The improvement includes a hole extending through the side wall of the sleeve into the conductor channel. The hole allows solder to be poured into the sleeve and around the conductors directly on the ends of the conductors. The hole allows greater visual inspection of the spliced solder joint both during and after pouring of the solder.
