If, after reading it, the instructions are not clear, consult a qualified electrician.

Please if you have never been shown how to do a HV joint don't attempt it! There's just so many things to go wrong.

Unless you are trained and qualified to perform this sort of electrical work you need to hire a qualified cable jointer to perform the work.

This is not something you can safely or legally do yourself (see your local electrical codes and practices for more information).
