Abstract
An electrical line penetration through a housing wall made of plastic has electrical traces embedded in a flexible conductor. The electrical traces of the flexible conductor have electrical contact points on both sides of the housing wall. The flexible circuit is injection-molded into the housing wall. In the production of the sealed electrical line penetration, a flexible film with an electrical trace is clamped in, on the outer side of the housing to be injection-molded and the inner side of the housing to be injection-molded respectively, between two halves of an injection mold.
