1. A system for coupling wires comprising:
- a conductive connector for splicing two or more wires featuring;
a head; and
a cap comprising;
a hollow body;
a first socket, located on the inside of the hollow body;
a second socket, located on the outside of the hollow body;
wherein the head is configured for removable input to the second socket so that the connector is releasably secured to the outside of the hollow body of the cap whenever the head is input into the second socket;
wherein the head is configured for removable input to the first socket so that the connector is securable to the inside of the hollow body of the cap whenever the head is input into the first socket; and
wherein said sockets are configured to receive and releasably retain the head of the connector.

20. A method for placing sealant around a wire connection comprising the steps of:
-
obtaining a conductive connector for splicing two or more wires featuring a head; obtaining a cap comprising; a hollow body; a first socket, located on the inside of the hollow body; a second socket, located on the outside of the hollow body; wherein the head is configured for removable input to the second socket so that the connector is releasably secured to the outside of the hollow body of the cap whenever the head is input into the second socket; wherein the head is configured for removable input to the first socket so that the connector is securable to the inside of the hollow body of the cap whenever the head is input into the first socket; and wherein said sockets are configured to receive and releasably retain the head of the connector; filling the cap with a sealant; securing the head of the connector to the second socket of the sealant filled cap; anchoring the wires to said connector; unsecuring the connector and wires from the second socket of the cap; and depositing the connector plus wires into the cap.
