ABSTRACT:
In a method of making a connection between a plastics sheathed cable and an enclosed cable joint or termination, the enclosure is opened up to expose the existing conductor joint or termination and a separately formed plastics part of the enclosure that includes an end wall is removed. A new part of plastics material including an end wall which has at least one hole of a size appropriate to a cable at said end of the existing joint or termination and which is split between said hole and the peripheral edge of said new part, is applied to the or each cable sheath at said end of the joint or termination. A length of said plastics sheathed cable is passed through a further hole in the end wall of said new part and its conductor or conductors connected to at least one conductor of at least one of the cables of the existing joint or termination. The split in said new part is sealed by enclosing the edges bounding the split in a mould and injecting mouldable thermoplastics material therein, fluid-tight seals are effected between the or each cable and the end wall of said new part of the enclosure, and the enclosure is then re-closed.
