Abstract

A method for making an electrically shielded housing for an electrical device includes the steps of at least partially forming an insert member having a non-conductive outer surface portion and a conductive inner surface portion, insert molding the at least partially formed insert member in a cavity of a non-conductive housing body member so that the conductive inner surface portion of the insert member is disposed adjacent an outer surface portion of the body member cavity and the non-conductive outer surface portion of the insert member forms a housing cavity. An electrical device received in the housing cavity is electrically shielded by the conductive inner surface portion of the insert member and insulated from the conductive inner surface portion of the insert member by the non-conductive outer surface portion thereof.
