Abstract: A sealing arrangement having a pre-sealing element and a pourable sealing compound. The sealing arrangement is intended for use in electrical cables where several insulated conductors are enclosed within an insulating hose. To achieve the desired moisture-resistant sealing effect with minimal expenditure of time and material, and to avoid damage to the cable and/or conductors, the pre-sealing element is in the form of an elastic sheath which encloses all the individual conductors at a pre-set location. The sheath comprises a tubular portion which tightly encloses the conductors, pressing them together, and a funnel-shaped portion joined with it, which fits tightly against the wall of the insulating hose.
