ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a device and method for environmentally sealing a wire splice for use in nuclear power stations and the like. More particularly the device includes three components, an end cap, a sleeve and a separator. The end cap is cross-linked and heat shrinkable. The sleeve and separator fuses under the temperature required for shrinking the end cap. Upon fusing, the sleeve and separator mixes into an impermeable unitary mass in which are embedded the wires.
