Explain the limitation of temporary repairs to an electric insulation?
There is no limitation of temporary or permanent repairs to electrical insulation. All that is required is that the splice have equal or a better insulation factor than that of the two wires that are being joined together. If it is an underground splice then that has to include the waterproof factor that underground wiring insulation has. Heat shrink over the overall taped splice will suffice for this type of installation.
