How long does it take to splice a cable?

It depends on how many wires are in the cable. The more conductors in the cable set the longer it will take to splice them.

What is wrong with taping a broken wire?

There is nothing wrong taping a broken wire. As long as the wire connection is made with an approved mechanical device, the splice can be taped. With broken wires, usually the conductor is put together again with a butt splice. On larger size conductors the butt splice is just bare metal. This type of splice has to be tapped. The code rule states that the tape insulation must be brought up to the insulation value of the existing insulation factor.


If you ground wire is not long enough can you connect 2 wires together and then ground it to the grounding post?

* Yes. Extending the ground wire will have no adverse effect and will properly ground the device. * It is important that the splice be accomplished properly. That means that the extension conductor [wire] be of adequate size to carry the load, the surface of both conductors at the splice be clean and free of corrosion which could impede current flow, and a sound [both mechanically and electrically] splice be made.


In what types of products are conductors used?

Conductors are used in every electrical product and device that is manufactured. Without the conductors there would be no path for the electricity to travel.

Different kinds of splices and joints?

The four types of splices and joints are the Western Union splice, tap splice or tap joint, fixture splices or fixture joints, and rattail joint. The most common among the four wire splices is the Western Union splice.

I do not know the answer but the last one was penis and i am sure that isn't right.


What are the different kind of joints and splicing?

One type of electrical joint is known as a western splice. Another type of mechanical joint is known as a butt splice where a device is installed in series with the wires to be connected and then crimped with a crimping tool. Another type for combining wires together uses a device known as a wire nut.
