Abstract
An electrical component (20) comprises electrical circuit means (22) and housing member (50) disposed over a first portion (24) of the electrical circuit means (22). The circuit means (22) has a second portion (30) extending outwardly from the housing member (50) at a junction (32) with the first portion (24). The housing member (50) comprising a dielectric amorphous thermoplastic resin which is molded over the first portion (24) of the electrical circuit means (22). The composition seals the interface (56) of the housing (50) and the extending second portion (30) of the circuit means (22) and maintains sealing engagement therewith when stress is applied to the interface (56).
