To avoid condensation creeping, via capillary action, between copper
conductor and the sleeving from an open end into otherwise sealed

section.
How to make or what sort of term or construction to look for in cable
specs?

Probably better to just sleeve/seal the ends if and when required. There
are lots of heatshrink products available for this.

But heatshrink leaves a capilliary path.




No, some heatshrink does.
