Abstract: A cable splicing apparatus for multiconductor cables which is characterized by a sleeve portion having resilient end portions adapted to receive threaded collar means for securely frictionally gripping the ends of the cable being spliced. The apparatus further includes a novel slideably mounted centerplate integrally carrying electrically conducting pins for connecting the severed conductors to form the splice. The centerplate is adapted to cooperate with guide means to assure positive alignment with the cable and the sleeve to simplify installation and to eliminate improper connections between non-mating conductors. Preferably, after the splice connection has been made and the sleeve is secured, a heat responsive plastic tube is employed to completely shroud the splice joint.
