<p>A terminal for an electrical wire comprises a terminal portion (1) for forming a disconnectable electrical connection to a corresponding terminal, a crimp portion (3) for forming a crimp to the conductor of the electrical wire, a neck (4) that connects the terminal to the crimp portion, and a plastics sleeve (7) located over the neck and crimp portion and extending beyond the end of the crimp portion. The neck (4) and the part of the sleeve (7) located over the neck together retain a quantity of sealant e.g. hot-melt adhesive (6) for preventing or reducing passage of moisture from the terminal portion to the crimp portion.</p> |
