Abstract
An electrical cable comprises a central conductor core protected by an intermediate sealing sheath of insulating material. The intermediate sheath is surrounded by armoring and the armoring by an outer sealing sheath of insulating material. The cable includes an electrical joint in its central core. The outer and intermediate sheaths and the armoring are cut and removed over the joint. The cable further comprises an over-molding forming a sleeve around the joint and extending over the outer sheath on either side of the joint. The armoring and the outer sheath are cut and removed over a portion of length greater than the portion over which the intermediate sheath is removed, thereby defining, on either side of the joint, a shoulder and a step between the intermediate sheath and the outer sheath. The over-molding engages snugly over the shoulders and the steps to form a watertight seal therewith.
