Abstract

An arrangement for sealed leading of at least one conductor has a housing having a housing wall which surrounds a housing aperture, a closing part which closes the housing aperture, a seal arranged between the closing part and the housing wall which surrounds the housing aperture, at least one conductor track serving as at least one conductor which is pressure-tightly connected with a conductor track carrier formed by an elastic flexible carrier film, the conductor track carrier being routed between the housing and the closing part, the at least one conductor being insulated from outside and being in close contact with the seal in a closing position of the closing part, the closing part being held to the seal by a closing force, a part of the conductor track carrier having an elastic flexible extension which protrudes within the housing, an electrical component which is movably arranged within the housing, the extension being bent for contacting the at least one conductor track thereon on at an end of the extension directly to the electric component thereby fixing the end of the extension to the electric component which is movably arranged within the housing, so that the end of the…
