Abstract
A kit of parts for forming an enclosure for a cable splice that rigidly fixes two or more spliced cables and moisture proofs the splice and exposed cable ends. The kit includes a vial partially filled with a body of sealant and a plug which receives the cable ends and then may be positioned in the vial and partially immersed in the body of sealant. By immersing the plug in the body of sealant, the sealant is forced upwardly and around the cable ends to fully enclose the cable splice and the cable ends in the sealant. Arms associated with the plug act to retain the plug on the vial.
