  • Patent number: 10123440
    Abstract: An electrical device having a housing and a lid which may be placed on the housing. A sealing element is situated in a depression of the housing, in particular the wall of the housing, which is disposed between the housing and the lid. The sealing element has a recess for the feed-through of a cable. The cable is inserted into a curved groove of the housing, especially the wall of the housing. The housing has a claw segment, which hooks and/or cuts into into the shielding of the cable.
