A sealant containment gasket is provided for use on an electric motor to be used in a moist environment. The inventive gasket includes a first upright wall that covers a power-supply opening in the motor with a wiring passageway and further includes a second upright wall, at least a portion of which is spaced away from the first upright wall. The walls of the gasket cooperate to form a pocket to receive wiring extending through the opening in the motor. The pocket also defines a cavity between the walls with a filling hole disposed along a top margin thereof. Liquid sealant is inserted into the cavity through the filling hole when the motor is disposed right-side-up and on its feet in the assembly position. The liquid sealant is contained within the pocket and forms a barrier around the wiring passageway to prevent moisture from entering the motor.
