Abstract

An injection-molded part (1) includes elevations (2) and/or depressions (12) arranged between integrated printed conductors (4). If the elevations (2) or depressions (12) are uncoated and thus electrically insulating, they increase the effective voltage clearances between the printed conductors (4) and the components (3) arranged next to the printed conductors (4). The geometric distances can then be reduced. Alternatively, by electroconductively coating the elevations (2), electric and magnetic shielding is achieved in a simple manner. A cover (6) is provided as a top of a box which uses elevations (2) as side walls. A tapering portion (5) connects coatings (7,7') of the cover (6) and elevations (2) via a printed conductor (8) running diagonally across the tapering portion (5).
