ABSTRACT:
An insulator for covering an electric cable has circular recesses for receiving any portions of a connector which extend beyond a surface of the cable covered by the insulator. If the connector extends between overlapping portions of a pair of cables, the connector and the overlapping portions of the cables can be completely enveloped by sandwiching them between a pair of insulators. The diameter of each recess is chosen so as to closely accommodate the extending portions of its associated connector and to provide a substantial barrier of insulation about the connector out to the edges of the cables being joined to prevent moisture, dirt and other contaminents from reaching the connector and causing its degradation or shorting.
