Please help me settle a debate..... when you find twisted, soldered and taped splices in the field do you remake the splice, retape or apply a wirenut to the splice?
Obviously we are talking old installations here, do you think the these types of connections are still sound 50 years later?
FWIW I have been leaving the soldered splices in place and just putting a wirenut on them, however, I am questioning that practice because of 110.3(B) which has me worried that my wirenuts are a code violation.
