Abstract

A sealing device and method for sealing an electrical terminal. The sealing device includes a heat shrinkable tubing having an inner wall. A first sealant/adhesive is configured to cooperate with the heat shrinkable tubing. The first sealant/adhesive has a first sealant/adhesive first surface and an oppositely facing first sealant/adhesive second surface. The second surface of the first sealant/adhesive is bonded to the inner wall of the heat shrinkable tubing. A second sealant/adhesive is configured to cooperate with free ends of electrical conductors which are in electrical engagement with the electrical terminal. The second sealant/adhesive has a second sealant/adhesive first surface and an oppositely facing second sealant/adhesive second surface. The second sealant/adhesive first surface is provided in engagement with the electrical conductors. The second sealant/adhesive second surface is provided in engagement and bonded with the first sealant/adhesive first surface.
