Abstract

A method for electrically conductively connecting the electrical conductors (3, 4) of two high voltage cables (1, 2) is provided. The conductors (3, 4) are exposed at their ends by removing the respective casing and they are then inserted from different sides into a pipe piece (5) in such a way that they rest against each other with their end faces extending perpendicular to their axis and level with the central throughholes. The conductors (3, 4) are then secured by means of the securing screws (6) in the pipe piece 5 and bores extending in radial direction are made through the throughholes into which the two conductors (3, 4) project in the area of their end faces. Finally, the contact screws of an electrically well conductive metal are screwed into the central throughholes and further into the bores.
