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, upon which is positioned on a conductive sleeve. At least one spring is positioned over the conductive sleeve and compresses the sleeve against support core. When the support core is removed the spring constricts to a reduced diameter and thereby compress the conductive sleeve against a conductive shield of the cable. Additional layers of material may be placed on the support core for providing electrical insulation or shielding.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.] An assembly for splicing electrical cables of the type including a central conductor, an insulative layer, a conductive shield, and an outer protective jacket, the assembly comprising:a longitudinal tubular support core;a longitudinal conductive sleeve which is a metallic braided sleeve and is positioned coaxially over the support core; andat least one spring positioned over the conductive sleeve and compressing against the conductive sleeve, the spring constricting to a reduced diameter when the support core is removed and thereby compress the conductive sleeve against a conductive shield of a cable.
