ABSTRACT:
Under the invention, a new electrical terminal assembly is provided. In one embodiment, the electrical terminal assembly comprises an electrical terminal made of an electrically conductive material and having a cavity to receive a wire assembly, and a wire assembly, comprising an electrically conductive wire and insulation surrounding the wire such that a portion of the wire assembly is insulated and a portion of the wire assembly is uninsulated. The wire assembly extends into the cavity of the electrical terminal such that the uninsulated portion of the wire assembly comes into contact with the electrical terminal. The electrical terminal is crimped at a first location around the insulated portion of the wire assembly which inhibits fluid from entering the portion of the cavity housing the uninsulated portion of the wire assembly.
