It is obligatory to wipe over splints (جبائر) during both (full ablution) and wudu (partial ablution) if they completely cover the area that is obligatory to wash. However, if only a part of the splint covers the obligatory area while another part extends beyond it, then only the part that covers the obligatory area should be wiped, because wiping is a substitute for washing, and thus it is restricted to its specific location.
