ABSTRACT:
A splice closure for environmental protection of aerial cable splices is provided. The splice closure includes a double-wall construction facilitating closure strength, construction and operation. A preferred construction is provided which facilitates extension of an intact closure, by means of a one-half section cut from a second, identical, closure. A trough and drain arrangement facilitates drainage of water from an interior of the closure, to the environment. Preferred orientation of an opening hinge in the closure, facilitates access to an enclosed cable splice area. A preferred arrangement is provided, for association of end cap arrangements with the closure.
