Abstract
The invention relates to a connecting device (200) to equip an end of an electric cable (100), including a multilayer sleeve having an axis (202) and having an insulating intermediate layer (204) interposed between two layers suitable for ensuring the guiding of an electric field. According to the invention, only the end or ends (207) of the sleeve designed to cooperate with a cable end are in a state of radial expansion such that they present an inside diameter that is greater than the outside diameter of the corresponding cable end and which will be less than this outside diameter once retraction of the said ends of the sleeve has been brought about. The invention also relates to a process for mounting this device on the cable or cables.
