ABSTRACT:
An electrical connection for all of the exposed concentric neutrals of underground direct burial power cables made from a kit including a soft, completely tin-coated, L-shaped copper sleeve wrapped about the cable, the short leg of the L forming a projecting tab. A ring-tong crimp type connector is bolted to the tab and the entire bolted connection and crimp connector is dip soldered. After the sleeve is wrapped about the cable, it is surrounded by a rubber gasket field cut to fit. A hose clamp having a special metal shim constricts the sleeve causing good electrical contact with all of the exposed concentric neutrals and secures the sleeve in place. A lead wire is then crimped in place in the crimp type connector.
