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.
In electronics, an octopus splice refers to a cable that has been split into different branches, like the tentacles of an octopus. These branches each have a connector on the end.
for instance, breaking into a series run of cable to install a switch for a device.
A class A splice is defined in ACI 318 Section 12.15. There are two types of splice (A and B) which define the length of the splice as a multiple of the tensile development length (ld) Class A denotes a splice that has 1.0 x ld of overlap. A class B splice has 1.3 x ld. Class B is required except where splices are kept out of critical ares (see the code).
Splice uses stranded wires while joint uses solid wire.

The term 'splice' tends to be used in North America, whereas the term 'joint' tends to be used in the UK. For high-voltage cables, the tradesmen are known as 'splicers' (North America) or 'jointers' (UK).

A short splice will nearly double the diameter of the material, but will be shorter in length and not as strong as a long splice.

The long splice, the short splice, the end splice, and the eye splice are probably the most commonly used types.
Under the seat, towards the rear of the seat, there is a splice in the cable that goes to the back of the vehicle. This cable connects to the levers just inside the back door that allow the seats to be folded while standing behnid the vehicle. This splice is black plastic- about an inch in diameter and about 2.5 inches long. In the center is a grey clip that holds everything together. Remove the grey clip. Rotate the splice until you see a split on the rear that will allow the rear cable to pass through. Turn the splice 90 degrees so the cable finds its way through the splt. The ferrule on the end of the cable can then pass. Good Luck PocoJoe Tucson AZ
"U" type cable clamps I recently needed to replace a battery cable and found them to be relatively inexpensive. Especially when I considered the labor I was going to put into making the "splice" and then weather-proofing the connection. FYI - Less than $10 for cables over 40" long.

Replace it with a longer cable. That is the safest and best way. You could splice another cable on to the original but I would not advise it.
"no you cant" Actually, you can. You would have to splice your own cable, but, yes.
It's very expensive, and difficult to splice two cables together.
