RE: Suggestions for cable joint kits for submersible applications
Are you talking about something that can survive waterlogged ground conditions, or something for the bottom of the ocean? What voltage / cable size are you considering?

I have installed many submersible pumps (ie Flyght pumps) over the years. I have always been able to buy the pump with a long enough length of cable such that the termination is always above the high-water mark.
If the pumps are already bought with too short a cable, I believe that Tyco-Raychem has a product that will work (as Scotty mentioned above).

On this side of the pond, we would normally use a Kellums cable grip to support the cable(s).
