Abstract
An exemplary electric motor includes a power entry compartment, a power connection compartment, a removable cover, and a sealing member positioned between the power entry compartment and the power connection compartment to create a moisture-tight seal between the power entry compartment and the power connection compartment. The removable cover at least partially encloses or seals the power entry compartment and the power connection compartment. The power entry compartment receives the electrical wires that power the electric motor. The sealing member between the power entry compartment and the power connection compartment includes at least one wire channel to allow wires that power the electric motor to enter the power connection compartment from the power entry compartment. The power connection compartment houses one or more components used to make the electrical connections between the electrical wires and the motor.
