Abstract: A housing for receiving electrotechnical components includes a first and a second housing shell having, respectively, a first housing web that forms a sealing face and a second housing web that forms a further sealing face. The first and second housing webs are part of an inner wall of a double-walled casing portion of the housing. Two resilient sealing elements for sealing a transition portion are formed between the housing shells. In the assembled state, the first and second housing webs are aligned one above the other and substantially flush and the longitudinal edges thereof facing each other are arranged at a distance apart. A carrier element forms a bridging element between the housing webs and presses the sealing elements in the transverse direction or in the assembly direction against the sealing faces.

Abstract: The invention relates to a housing for receiving electrotechnical components, which housing comprises a first and at least one further housing shell, wherein the first housing shell has a first housing web that forms at least one first sealing face and the further housing shell has a further housing web that forms at least one further sealing face. The first housing web and the further housing web are part of an inner wall of a double-walled casing portion of the housing, wherein at least one resilient sealing element for sealing a transition portion is formed between the housing shells. In the assembled state of the housing shells, the first housing web and the further housing web are aligned one above the other and substantially flush and the longitudinal edges thereof facing each other are arranged at a distance apart from each other.
