Abstract
A splice is provided which includes two semi-cylindrical splice members joined together for relative pivotal movement into and out of engagement with each other in a closed mode and an open mode, respectively. Each splice member incudes two channels. Respective two channels of each splice member are aligned with each other in the closed mode to form a first cavity and a second cavity. The walls of the first cavity bear against a first length of wire, and the walls of the second cavity bear against a second length of wire which is mechanically and electrically coupled to the first length of wire within the first cavity.
