Abstract
An assembly for electrical splice connection of cables may include: a first connector, including a first spigot and first crimping portion, configured to be crimped onto a first cable conductor; a second connector, including a second spigot and second crimping portion, configured to be crimped onto a second cable conductor; a first open shell configured to accommodate the first and second spigots; and/or a second open shell configured to be fastened to the first open shell to wrap and hold the first and second spigots. A method for electrical splice connection of the cables may include: crimping the first crimping portion onto the first cable conductor; crimping the second crimping portion onto the second cable conductor; accommodating the first and second spigots on the first open shell; and/or fastening the second open shell to the first open shell to wrap and hold the first and second spigots.
