Proper repair of 220/110 Volt wiring consists of replacement of the damaged wiring. When electrical casualty requires
expedient repairs, repair may be made by splicing. Splicing is authorized for repair of damaged cables if the remainder of
the cable is in good mechanical and electrical condition. The cable must be replaced in its entirety at the most opportune
time. For proper splicing methods, refer to FM 55-509-1.
