Impervious cable connected electrical component assembly

Abstract

An impervious cable connected electrical component assembly is provided wh includes an electrical component which has a conductive wire extending therefrom. An impervious container is provided which has an open top and a closed bottom. The electrical component is located within the container with its conductive wire extending out of and beyond the container's top. A cable is provided which has a conductive wire within an impervious sheath. A lengthwise portion of this wire is exposed. The conductive wire extending from the top of the container and the exposed conductive wire portion of the cable are electrically joined at a junction outside the container. An impervious sleeve is bonded to the cable sheath so as to hermetically seal the wire junction along the cable. The open top of the container and the sleeve are bonded to hermetically seal the electrical component. With this arrangement the assembly can be easily constructed with minimal effect on the electrical component and, after construction, the assembly can be used with maximum protection of the electrical component.
