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.
Can you splice into a wire in mid-run or doi need to add on to the circuit from the end of the run?
As long as all the existing wiring is adequate for the anticipated loads, there's no electrical difference regardless of where you make the physical connection to additional wiring.
Can you splice 18 gauge wire and 12 gauge?
Try it see what happens... >:l Can you splice them? Yes. Should you splice them? No. It really all depends on what your over current protection is. If your #12 wire is on a 20 amp breaker, your #18 wire can melt and cause a fire without tripping the breaker. I do not know what is the amp rating of 18 gauge wire. -- Sparkfighter
Suppose that you need to splice two large wires at severe strain To do this job properly you'll need to use a?
A split bolt connector rated for the voltage and amperage of the circuit.

What are the different kinds of splice?
The five most known are the rattail joint, the western union, the fixture joint, the knotted tap and the staggered splice. Then there are crimping, wire-nutting, soldering, sty-cons.

How do you change a tail light bulb holder for a 1994 Pontiac grand am?
Cut the wires on the old fixture and splice wires from new receptacle
What are the different wire joints?
The electrical splice and joint types are the Western Union splice, tap joint or splice, fixture joint or splice, and the rattail joint. The splices and joints are used to connect two pieces of wires to carry an electrical signal or current.

Which wires do you splice to connect lights for a utility trailer on a 2005 grand caravan?
You can use "Scotch locks" on the tailights, and stop lights - trace them from the rear light fixture
Can you break a three phase from a disconnect?
If you mean can you splice in a second circuit from the load side of a three phase disconnect then the answer is no.
How do you wire 2 new lights with on-off switches using wires coming from an existing outlet?
You can attach/splice into the power feed to outlet (ways of doing this can vary with how the outlet is wired but make sure that all or part of the outlet isn't controlled by an existing switch). You can then take the hot, neutral and ground to a light fixture or to the first switch, then to the second switch. It is normally easier to do this project by taking power to the light (s) first, with 2 wire drops to the switches, from basement or attic.
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.
