Abstract :
The environmental qualification of heat shrinkable splices is investigated with respect to abnormal installation. An analytical method is developed to access the installed splice insulation resistance during a design basis accident at a nuclear facility. Once the insulation resistance is established a system´s performance capabilities can also be verified analytically.
