ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for filling a jacketed signal conduit with a blocking material are provided. The blocking material is injected into the jacketed signal conduit such that the blocking material occupies space within the jacketed signal conduit not occupied by the signal conduit. The injected blocking material inhibits fluid intrusion and migration between the signal conduit jacket and the signal conduit.
