Abstract
A compressor is provided with a fluid tight electrical connector. The electrical connector is sealed against the compressor housing, and a cable is attached to the connector housing. Since the cable is separately attached to the connector housing, it is not directly connected to the electrical pins in the compressor. This reduces damage to those pins. Further, unique sealing arrangements make the electrical connection fluid tight.
