Abstract
The sealing mechanism comprises a cap and a grommet for sealing an electrical lead extended from a coil overmold or a closed cavity. The grommet provides a first seal against the electrical lead and a second seal against a mounting section around the electrical lead. The cap is snap-fit onto the mounting portion for the lead through engagement between corresponding snap structures on the cap and mounting portion. The grommet comprises a skirt section and a cover section. The skirt section forms a radial seal against the mounting portion while the cover section seals against the leads.
