An electric cable joint (including a termination) comprises at least one inner component heat-shrunk onto a cable or on to at least one part of a cable and at least one outer component of resilient material which is an interference fit with the inner component(s). The heat-shrink component takes up considerable variation in the size of the underlying cable (or part thereof) so that a range of cable sizes can be accommodated by a much smaller number of inner component sizes than in a purely “slip-on”range.

An electric cable joint comprising: at least one cable end having at least one core, said cable end being cut back to expose respective ends of a central conductor, of dielectric material surrounding said conductor and of a dielectric screen surrounding said dielectric material; at least one inner component in the form of a sleeve made of an insulating material heat-shrunk onto said core and extending across said end of the dielectric screen; and at least one outer component of resilient material which is interference fit with said inner component.
