Abstract
A housing with electronics arranged therein includes a wall defining a penetration therethrough. A flexible conductor support made of plastic and including electrical conductors embedded therein extends through the penetration opening for electrical connection of at least one of the conductors to the electronics in the housing. The plastic of the flexible conductor provides insulation of the electrical conductors. The conductor support is sealed and mechanically fixed by a conductor support seal arranged between the penetration opening of the housing and the conductor support, the conductor support seal being molded directly onto the flexible conductor support and the housing.
