Method for splicing shielded wire cables and cables made by same

A method (400) of splicing shielded wire cables (110, 112, 114) includes the steps of providing a first, second, and third shielded wire cable (110, 112, 114) each having a core conductor (116, 118, 120) axially surrounded by a shield conductor (130, 132, 134) which is axially surrounded by an insul...

Zusammenfassung:A method (400) of splicing shielded wire cables (110, 112, 114) includes the steps of providing a first, second, and third shielded wire cable (110, 112, 114) each having a core conductor (116, 118, 120) axially surrounded by a shield conductor (130, 132, 134) which is axially surrounded by an insulative jacket (124, 126, 128), providing a flexible insulation layer (510), a flexible conductive layer (518), and a section of dual wall heat shrink tubing (step 410). The first portion of the flexible insulation layer (510) is wrapped about the joined first, second, and third core conductors (116, 118, 120) (step 412). The flexible conductive layer (518) is wrapped about the first, second, and third shield conductors (130, 132, 134) (step 422). The flexible conductive layer (518) and portions of the first, second, and third insulative jacket (124, 126, 128) are disposed within the section of dual wall heat shrink tubing (524) (step 428), thus forming a shielded wire cable splice (528).
