Abstract: Housing with a base body open to one side with four outer walls and a base, at least two cable infeeds and a lid with an inside and an outside. Good cable sealing is achieved in that the lid has a groove with a groove base and two groove webs delimiting the groove on its inside such that the outer edges of the outer walls located at the open side are received in the groove in the connected state between lid and base body such that at least one of the groove webs is elastically deformed and thus acts in a sealing manner with respect to the outer walls.
