Note:
In applications where the splice is regularly exposed to high levels of ultra-violet radiation
(i.e. direct sunlight), wrap two half-lapped layers of
Scotch® Super 33+™ Vinyl Electrcal Tape or
Scotch® Vinyl Electrical Tape Super 88 over
the re-jacketing tubes.
Note:
If circuit grounding is required at this splice location, connect to the ground wire per
Wisconsin Electric specifications.

Jacketing is not optional.
2.8.1 Wrap a roll of slightly stretched rubber mastic over, centered on, each mastic seal. Tear off the last couple
inches of mastic.

2.8.2 Begin to install the cold shrink tube by completely
covering the rubber mastic, and slowly pulling and
unwinding the inner core counterclockwise toward the
splice body. The outer core should remain relatively
stationary while unwinding the inner core. If the outer
core begins to move towards the first mastic seal, gently
pull the outer core and jacketing tube towards the second
mastic seal and continue unwinding the inner core.
2.8.3 Continue to install the cold shrink tube over the rubber mastic on the other cable by slowly pulling and
unwinding the outer core counterclockwise. This portion of the cold shrink tube installs differently than
typical cold shrink products in that as the tube shrinks, the end rolls under. The tube may need a slight
push to get over the second mastic seal.
