Abstract

A housing used for encapsulating an electrical connector having internal passageways extending between opposite ends. A socket in the housing which conforms to the connector is filled with a quantity of viscous electrically insulating water restricting encapsulating material, and the connector is pressed endways into the socket via levers on the housing so that the encapsulating material is forced into and extruded through the passageways to completely fill the interstices in the connector.
