Best Answer

An electrical double wrapped cross joint is just like an ordinary cross joint but double wrapped with electrical tape. It is used where two tap conductors need to extend away from the branch conductor in the opposite direction and is stronger than the ordinary cross joint.

What are the differences between electrical splices and electrical joints?

The married joint is an electrical joint used for joining multi-strand cables. The wires are unstranded, then interlaced with the wires of the other cable, and then married (twisted) together before finally being soldered.


Is electrical tape a mixture?

Yes, most modern electrical tape is a mixture of polyvinyl chloride, one or more plasticizer chemicals, and a layer of adhesive. The old black electrical tape was usually cotton cloth (a mixture itself), unvulcanized rubber (a mixture itself), and a layer of adhesive. Before electrical tapes with an adhesive layer were developed a layer of unvulcanized rubber tape was wrapped around the joint then that was wrapped with a layer of friction tape (a mixture of cotton cloth and sticky unvulcanized rubber and sometimes an abrasive to increase friction) to keep it in place. The layer of unvulcanized rubber tape would slowly over time fuse with itself forming a one piece insulating rubber tube around the joint. However both it and the rubber in the friction tape would eventually deteriorate, crumble, and flake off exposing the wires!


Different kinds of splices and joints?

The four types of splices and joints are the Western Union splice, tap splice or tap joint, fixture splices or fixture joints, and rattail joint. The most common among the four wire splices is the Western Union splice.
