ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus are disclosed for accurately removing preselected lengths and thicknesses of insulation from an electrical cable. This is accomplished by making a circumferential cut of preselected depth and distance from the end of the electrical cable, through the use of a guide tool in combination with a first cutting tool. Following the circumferential cut in the insulation, the end portion of the electrical cable is secured in a substantially stationary position through the use of one or more clamping devices in combination with a fixturing body. The insulation layer is then removed through the use of a cylindrical cutting tool guided by a guide body into the end of the electrical cable. This second cutting tool is forced axially along the length of the electrical cable and rotated with respect to the cable so as to perform a circular cutting of the cable insulation in an axial direction from the end of the electrical cable to the location of the previous circumferential cut.
