Abstract

See full text

The invention relates to a spliced optical fiber comprising a first and second polarization-maintaining optical fiber connected at ends by splicing; to fiber optic current sensors; and to a method for protecting the spliced optical fiber against mechanical stress and/or humidity. A protection tube is arranged around the spliced optical fiber in a splice section of the spliced optical fiber. A first and second end of the protection tube is sealed to the spliced optical fiber by first and second sealing arrangement for protecting the splice.
