Abstract
Forming an encapsulated splice region between cables in which conductors of one cable are electrically connected to conductors of the other cable to form splices. After electrically isolating splices from one another, a barrier layer is provided which extends axially across and beyond the splices onto the cables and then a plastic encapsulation is molded so as to enclose the barrier layer. The materials of the molding and barrier layer are such that they do not unite at any interfacial region between them. This construction makes it easier to open the splice region subsequently.
