The FOA Reference For Fiber Optics
Fusion splicing requires stripping a longer length of bare fiber than termination, so the choice of stripper is important. There are three types of fiber strippers available, known as (from Left) the Miller

Note that The cutting length should be moderate. Avoid too long, the fiber protection sleeve cannot cover all the bare fibers. In addition, the cutting action should be natural and stable,
Ultimate Guide to Using a Fusion Splicer for Fiber Optic Cable
Q: On average, how long does it take to splice a fiber optic cable using a fusion splicer? A: Fusing two different lengths of fibers takes about 5 – 10 minutes per splice, including preparation,
How to Properly Fuse Together Fiber Optic Cables
A good cleaver is crucial to a successful fusion splice. The cleaver nicks the fiber and pulls or flexes it to cause a clean break rather then cut the fiber, which makes the end-face flat and
Fusion-splice basics
Experience has shown that many splice failures are due to breaks that often occur not right at the splice joint but nearby. The key steps for avoiding such breaks are good cleaning,
