Important: Use only duraseal splice sleeves. Other splice sleeves may not protect the splice from moisture or provide a good electrical
connection.
Use duraseal splice sleeves to form a one-to-one splice on all types of insulation except tefzel and coaxial. Use duraseal splice sleeves where there is
special requirements such as moisture sealing. Follow the instructions below in order to splice copper wire using duraseal splice sleeves.
1. Open the harness.
* If the harness is taped, remove the tape.
* To avoid wiring insulation damage, use a sewing ripper in order to cut open the harness.
* If the harness has a black plastic conduit, pull out the desired wire.
2. Cut the wire.
* Cut as little wire off the harness as possible.
* Ensure that each splice is at least 40 mm (1.5 in) away from other splices, harness branches, and connectors. This helps prevent moisture from
bridging adjacent splices and causing damage.
3. Select the proper size and type of wire.
* The wire must be of equal or greater size than the original.
* The wires insulation must have the same or higher temperature rating (4).
