Re: Question for all of you splicers


Hey Guy, Whatever you wanna think. I'll stand by my earlier statements. You don't need exray vision if you just use your brain and your as-builts. I never left an area where I didn't verify the correctness of my splicing, and I was very seldom wrong. The thinking techs here know what I'm talking about even if it's beyond you.

It's just a matter of being familiar with your as-build maps as well as your splicing maps. When I was splicing I would almost always figure rather than tone which leg went where and was wrong on about 1 out of 20. The ones I was wrong on, I caught myself when I checked the deadends or set up the next active downstream. It's just a matter of thinking about what you are doing.
