WIRE SPLICING USING SOLDER METHOD - Continued
NOTE
Be sure solder joint is centered in heat shrink tubing.
6.
Apply heat and allow heat shrink tubing (Figure 4, Item 1) to shrink until tight on solder joint and insulation of
wire (Figure 4, Item 2).
7.
If replacing a section of wire, measure distance between ends of wire.
8.
Cut a section of new wire (Figure 4, Item 3) 2 in. (5.08 cm) longer than the distance measured in Step (7).
9.
Remove 3/4 in. (1.9 cm) of insulation (Figure 4, Item 4) from both ends of new wire (Figure 4, Item 3).
10.
Slide two 3 in. (7.62 cm) pieces of heat shrink tubing (Figure 4, Item 1) over ends of wire (Figure 4, Item 2).
11.
Twist bare ends of wires (Figure 4, Item 2) and new wire (Figure 4, Item 3) together and solder. Ensure solder
flows evenly onto wires of each joint.
12.
Slide heat shrink tubing (Figure 4, Item 1) over solder joint.
NOTE
Be sure solder joint is centered in heat shrink tubing.
13.
Apply heat and allow heat shrink tubing (Figure 4, Item 1) to shrink until tight on solder joint and insulation of
wire (Figure 4, Item 2).
