splicing a short run


Explanation:
of cable, line, etc. (same as section, part, leg…)
from obvious 接 connect, 短short to 短距离 —a short distance, 接电线 —connecting [splicing] wires



Example sentence(s):
  • Replace the cables, which i will probably do for the short runs. I could of course splice them inside a back box but seems a bit messy.
