ABSTRACT:
A connecting device includes a body with an open end, a closed end and a body bore extending therebetween. A core includes an open end, a closed end and a core bore extending therebetween. The body bore is partly filled with potting compound in proximity to its closed end. The device has a closed position with the core inserted into the body bore and the core open end embedded in the potting compound to form a hermetically sealed pocket in the core bore. The body closed end has wire passages which receive wires therethrough. The wires are electrically connected in the sealed pocket. A method of connecting wires includes the steps of providing a body, providing a core telescopically receivable in the body, partly filling the body with potting compound, extending wires into the body and through the potting compound, connecting the wires, inserting the core into the body over the connected wires and forming a hermetically sealed pocket in the core bore.
