Abstract

A sealing arrangement includes: a first machine element and a second machine element, each made of an electrically-conductive material; and a seal. The first and second machine elements are sealed against one another by the seal. At least one of the machine elements is made of an electrically-conductive plastic which is at least partially covered by an electrically-insulating, injection-molded skin as a result of production. The seal has an electrically-conductive support body. The support body has at least one substantially mandrel-shaped projection comprising an electrically-conductive material which is arranged on a side of the support body facing the injection-molded skin and completely penetrates the injection-molded skin.
