  • Sealed electrical distribution center
    Patent number: 6547586
    Abstract: A sealing member for use in an electrical distribution center has a housing overlain by a terminal connector body. The connector body has a plurality of cavities. Terminals project from the housing into the cavities through an inner surface of the connector body. The sealing member is interposed between the housing and the connector body and seals around each of the terminals and against the inner surface of the connector body around each of the cavities. The sealing member has a substrate layer covered on both sides by layers of silicone rubber. Cable terminals are adapted to be inserted into the cavities through an outer surface of the connector body to make electrical contact with the terminals projecting from the housing.
