Abstract: A wire splicer has a disk with opposite first and second faces and a plurality of holes extending through said disk between said first and second faces. A nose protrudes convergently from a central portion of the said first face, and the holes are distributed in an annular array extending around and adjacent said nose. A shank extending from said second face in alignment with said nose can be inserted into the chuck of an electric drill for rotating the wire splicer with the ends of wires inserted through the holes to splice the wire ends together. A method of splicing wires employs such a wire splicer.
