Shrinkable Splice Covers for Shore-to-Ship Cables
The splicing of THOF-400 flexible shore-to-ship power cable with shrinkable tubing was investigated, and the spliced cables were subjected to flexing, water immersion heat cycling, and abrasion. The conductors were spliced with compression fittings, and these were insulated with heat-shrinkable tubing splices. Splice covers made with large heat-shrinkable polyolefin tubing gave satisfactory performance, but properly prepared vulcanized neoprene splice covers gave better performance. An ambient-temperature-cured polyurethane material showed promise as a splice cover but has not been sufficiently developed for this use. (Author)
