Abstract
An electrical connector housing (3, 4) is sealed at its conductor-entry face by means of a sealing member (14) which is compressed against the face and into engagement with a shroud (12) surrounding the face and with conductors (8) passing through holes (15) in the sealing member (14), by means of a lid (17) which is latched to the shroud (12). The sealing member (14) when compressed is also engaged by terminals (6, 7) terminating the conductors (8) and prevents back-out of the terminals (6, 7) from their passageways (5) in the housing (3, 4).
