ABSTRACT:
A connection cap that includes a rear end wall positioned at a rear end of the connection cap for confining a sealing uncured resin, an opening positioned at a forward end of the connection cap for inserting a jointing portion of core wires of electrical cables, and a cylindrical wall extending from the opening to the rear end wall. The cylindrical wall has an inner surface formed with a plurality of ribs for positioning the jointing portion in the connection cap. The ribs are distributed in a circumferential direction to uniformly support the electrical cable. The uncured resin intrudes clearances each defined between adjacent two of the ribs. The inner surfaces of ribs define an inscribed circle having a diameter substantially the same as an outer diameter of a conductive sleeve for crimping the core wires. Advantageously, the ribs each have a forward end portion formed with a tapered surface gradually rising toward the rear end of connection cap.
