Abstract: A pre-assembled electrical splice component for splicing electrical cables of the type including a central conductor, an insulative layer, a conductive shield, and an outer protective jacket. The pre-assembled splice component includes a radially collapsible support core (12), upon which is positioned a conductive sleeve (20). At least one spring (26) is positioned over the conductive sleeve (20) and compresses the sleeve against support core (12). When the support core is removed the spring (26) constricts to a reduced diameter and thereby compresses the conductive sleeve (20) against a conductive shield of the cable. Additional layers of material may be placed on the support core (12) for providing electrical insulation or shielding.
