Abstract

The present invention involves a method for reducing the effect of electromagnetic interference (EMI) by providing EMI protection to a high voltage connector assembly, by employing a conductive outer housing, having a conductive tab or plurality of conductive tabs, the conductive outer housing also accommodating a seal (seal spring), a second outer housing, and a conductive third outer housing. The tabs being conductive coated to provide an element or portion of a grounding scheme for a connector assembly containing the outer housing. The conductive tabs make substantial contact with the conductive third outer housing and complete a portion of the connector assembly grounding scheme. The seal spring provides more force, additional force, for higher contact pressure with the third outer housing than would be present without the seal spring, resulting in better electrical conductivity between a conductive tab and the conductive third outer housing when in use.
