An electrical connector for a cable, a sleeve for a cable, and a method for fabricating an electrical connection. The connector, sleeve, and the method can all used for high-voltage electrical devices, for example, x-ray generating devices. In particular, the invention may be used for high-voltage electrical devices fabricated with an encapsulant, for example, a silicone potting material. In one aspect of the invention, the connector provides a high-voltage electrical connection having an integral bond between the high-voltage cable and the encapsulant with little or no air gaps. The connector includes a high-voltage cable having a sheath made from a first material, for example, polyethylene, and a sleeve made from a second material, for example, a silicone-based material, that is compatible with the encapsulant. Other aspects of the invention include a method for fabricating the connector and the sleeve used in the connector.
