How To Joint Faulty Underground Cable

First of all, all you need todo is to identify the faulty cable.


Once you identify the faulty cable, remove the PVC outer sheath (roughly about 2 feet length) until you see the steel armor.


Remove the armor until you see the internal cable.




Cut those cables.



Insert the jointing sleeve and do crimping the jointing sleeve by using crimping tool.



Now you have finish jointing one side of the cable.


Insert the heat shrinkable sleeve (the red and black colour). Please ensure the sleeve is fully covered the jointing areas.


Do the jointing with the other end.


This is how it look like.



Use the HT Tape to wrap the surrounding jointing area.


Then, cover the wrapped HT Tape with the heat shrinkable sleeve (red colour) and heat it up to let it shrink. 


Now, connect the steel amour with braided tape.


Joint to the other end.


Once finish, use the heat shrinkale sleeve (black colour) to cover the whole jointing area. Heat up the heat shrinkable sleeve to let it shrink.

The End.
