The splice enclosure comprises first and second shells, a first conductor arrangement and a second conductor arrangement. The first and second shells are adapted to mate with each other and each include an interior channel that extends between ends of the first and second shells. The interior channels are capable of allowing the plurality of wires to pass through the splice enclosure. The first conductor arrangement is disposed in the interior channel of the first shell and is capable of supporting the plurality of wires. The second conductor arrangement is disposed in the interior channel of the second shell and is capable of applying a force on the plurality of wires positioned within the first conductor arrangement of the first shell. The second conductor arrangement clamps the plurality of wires with the first conductor arrangement.
