ABSTRACT:
A buried service splice enclosure for sealing a splice of telecommunication cables comprises a closure defining an interior space for accommodating the cable splice and defining an opening for receipt of the splice therethrough. A closure seal sealably closes the closure opening and has apertures for receipt therethrough of the cables. Means are provided for sealing the closure seal to the closure and for sealing the cables to the closure seal at the apertures. An inlet fitting, such as a check valve, communicates with the closure interior space and is adapted to receive and pass an encapsulant under pressure into the interior space. An outlet fitting, such as a pressure relief valve, also communicates with the interior space, the pressure relief valve adapted to pass the encapsulant therethrough when the encapsulant is exposed to a predetermined pressure in the closure interior space.
