TM 1-1520-240-BDmaterials, and test equipment required to performemergency splice repairs. The major tools, testequipment, and repair materials are:•Digital Multimeter (DMM). A multimeter with probesis provided for measurement of AC and DC voltagesand current and continuity tests. The DMM iswaterproofed and built for use in hostileenvironments. This instruction is also provided inthe test equipment kit (paragraph 9-7b(i)(a)).•Wire Repair Segments. Partially assembled wiresplice segments are provided in three gages toquickly repair severed wires. These splicesegments have sealing sleeves attached to eachend of the wire.•Assorted Wire Splices. Assorted wire splices arepackaged in three sizes. The splices are used forrepairs other than those using the wire repairsegments.•Bulk Wire. Two spools of bulk wire are provided foruse with the assorted wire splices. They are usedfor repairs other than those using the wire repairsegments.•Wire Strippers. Two wire strippers are provided;one for stripping M81381 (Kapton) insulated wires,and one with general purpose blades for stripping allother wire insulation materials.•Crimp Tool. A crimp tool is provided to crimp wirerepair segments and assorted splices.•Swiss Army Knife. General purpose multiuse tool.•Cable Ties and Teflon Tape. Used to secure wiresplice insulation, wiring, and wire bundles.•Flashlight and illuminated Magnifying Glass. Use inwire identification and work in reduced light levels.•Diagonal Pliers. Used as a general purposecutter for cables, tie wraps, and string ties.•Wire Cutter. Use to cut wires ends during splicingoperations.(b)Use. Before using the kit's components, aworking knowledge of the kit's test equipment, tools,repair materials, and instruction and content descriptioncharts is required. The software package duplicates theenvironmentally protected software. It provides bothinstructions for the use of the kits' DMM, tools, andrepair materials, and content description charts. Theseinstructions are used to make emergency wiring repairs.Proficiency in the use and application of this material isnecessary to achieve emergency wire repair capability.Figure 9-3.
