3. Prepare the splice. Untwist the conductors and follow the splicing instructions for copper wire. Staggering the splices by 65 mm (2.5 in) is
recommended.
Important: Apply the mylar tape with the aluminum side inward. This ensures good electrical contact with the drain wire.
4. Re-assemble the cable.
*
Rewrap the conductors with the mylar tape.
*
Use caution not to wrap the drain wire in the tape (1).
*
Follow the splicing instructions for copper wire and splice the drain wire.
*
Wrap the drain wire around the conductors and tape with mylar tape.
5. Tape over the entire cable. Use a winding motion when you apply the tape.
