  2. Rope splicing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rope_splicing

    The long splice, unlike most splice types, results in a splice that is only very slightly thicker than the rope without the splice, but sacrifices some of the strength of the short splice. It does this by replacing two of the strands of each rope end with those from the other, and cutting off some of the extra strands that result.

  3. Western Union splice - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Western_union_splice

    Figure parts A–D show steps in forming a "short tie" Western Union splice. Figure parts E and F show two possible "long tie" variations. [2]The Western Union splice or lineman splice is a method of joining electrical cable, developed in the nineteenth century during the introduction of the telegraph and named for the Western Union telegraph company.

  4. Lineman's pliers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lineman's_pliers

    Lineman's pliers are used in the electrical trade to cut, straighten, and bend wire, and also to twist wires together when making splices. Lineman's can be used to strip wire and some types of cable, although wire strippers are more commonly used for this purpose as they can strip wire more quickly without damaging the conductors themselves.

  5. Line splice - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_splice

    Splice site of a copper wire. Cable sleeve (lead sleeve) for connecting paper-insulated wires Insulating sleeves. The splicing of copper wires happens in the following steps: The cores are laid one above the other at the junction. The core insulation is removed. The wires are wrapped two to three times around each other .

  6. Rat-tail splice - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rat-tail_splice

    A rat-tail splice, also known as a twist splice or a pig-tail splice, is a basic electrical splice that can be done with both solid and stranded wire. It is made by taking two or more bare wires and wrapping them together symmetrically around the common axis of both wires. The bare splice can be insulated with electrical tape or by other means.

  7. IDC (electrical connector) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IDC_(electrical_connector)

    Pin 1 is typically indicated on the body of the connector by a red or raised "V" mark. The corresponding wire in a ribbon cable is usually indicated by red coloration, a raised molded ridge, or markings printed onto the cable insulation. On the connector pin 2 is opposite pin 1, pin 3 is next to pin 1 along the length of the connector, and so on.

  8. Crimp (joining) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crimp_(joining)

    Crimped connectors fulfill numerous uses, including termination of wires to screw terminals, blade terminals, ring/spade terminals, wire splices, or various combinations of these. A tube-shaped connector with two crimps for splicing wires in-line is called a butt splice connector. Single-wire crimp terminals include:

  9. Twist-on wire connector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twist-on_wire_connector

    If colored white, it typically may be used for splicing neutral wires in a device box, while leaving a pigtail free for connection to a device (such as a receptacle). If colored green, the assembly is intended to be used as a grounding pigtail, similar to the feedthrough twist-on wire connectors without a permanently-attached wire.
