Spiking & Spearing Cable Splices

"Teaching apprentices where and how they should spike or spear a splice to save all the cables for rebuilding a splice or just changing out the lead sleeve."

"This piece of equipment was built back in the late 70's. I think we replaced the pump and the hoses but that's about it. The company who built it was Gibson Hydraulics in Tampa ,Florida - it has served us well and as you can see. Haven't speared or psiked a "hot" cable so far. And I hope that our crew's never will."
