stripping away the insulation of the first conductor at a first location along a longitudinal length of the first conductor to form a first window of exposed electrical conductor;
stripping away the insulation of the second conductor at a second location along a longitudinal length of the second conductor to form a second window of exposed electrical conductor;
positioning the first and second windows within an enclosure;
positioning the first and second conductors in one or more spacers to maintain a distance between the first and second conductors;
applying an epoxy material to fill in space between the enclosure and the first and second exposed electrical conductors; and
