Abstract
A protective cover for use particularly in a sealed splice of electrical cables comprises a generally cylindrical, elongate tubular member having a wall the ends of which are in overlapping relation over a circomferential portion of the tubular member. A groove extends radially into the inner circumferential surface of the tubular member and axially therealong at least for a portion of the length of the member. It is preferred that the tubular member be formed from a pre-contoured sheet of rubber-like material, the inner contoured sheet surfaces being coated with a sealing material.
