Abstract

A method for the tension proof closing of the end of an energy cable in which an energy cable is used whose center axis containing the electrical transmission elements is surrounded by a tension proof reinforcement of metal wires. Initially, the reinforcement at the end of the energy cable is removed over a predetermined length. Subsequently, a pipe piece of metal, which tightly surrounds the end of the remaining reinforcement, is placed onto the end of the remaining reinforcement. Finally, a cup shaped tubular elongated sleeve of metal is pushed onto the end of the energy cable and is connected in a tension proof manner to the pipe piece which has, at its free end facing away from the pipe piece, a device suitable for mounting a tension element. In addition, a device manufactured by the method is proposed.
