  • Protective wrappings for spliced cable connectors
    Patent number: 5903973
    Abstract: A protectively packaged connector for connecting multiple conductors is disclosed. The connector has multiple parts, each of which is provided with a protective covering of heat shrink thermoplastic film. The connector is assembled in the normal manner but with the film in place. This protects the connector from outside contaminants and is especially useful for filled connectors which readily attract contaminants because of the sticky waterproof filling compound.
