NOTE
The outside shell of these splicing connectors Is the accelerometer signal
ground. The splice connector shell should not be allowed to touch
ground or conduct to any outside potential or noise source. Letting a
co n n e ctor (which is signal common) touch ground can cause ground
loop noise Interjection.
When working with permanently routed cable systems it is
recommended that the splices be sealed with heat shrink (see Figure
6-2). Some heat shrink products contain heat activated two-part epoxy
which provides a water tight seal over the splice.
