King Innovation 98010 DryConn VisiLock SmartGel Anode Splice Housing
Brand: King Innovation | SKU: 98010
Product Overview
The 98010 VisiLock protects a separately made cathodic anode tap or branch splice inside a gel-filled housing. Its semi-transparent cover lets a crew inspect the encapsulated connection later, and the locking layout centers the splice. It is one housing per box for outdoor or direct-burial work on insulated cables rated up to 100 V; the electrical connector itself must be selected and installed separately.

Compatibility & Installation Notes
Make the electrical splice using its connector maker’s instructions first. Lay the main conductor into the cradles, center the connector, route the tap through either side, secure the wire ties, and latch the housing. Verify cable outside diameters and space before ordering.
Frequently Asked Questions

The manufacturer directs you to make the electrical connection separately; VisiLock is the protective SmartGel splice housing.
Can the splice be inspected later?
Yes. King describes the housing as re-enterable and semi-transparent for examination.
