The invention relates to a method for sealing a contact point region comprising at least one contact point at an electrical line connection, wherein the line connection comprises at least one electrical line and at least one conductive element electrically connected thereto. The method starts by arranging a shrink tube on the outer circumference of the contact point region, in a first region extending over the contact point region on both sides in the longitudinal direction. This is followed by heating the shrink tube to shrinking temperature. During the heating of the shrink tube, an inductive heating of the electrical conductor is additionally performed, at least in the contact point region, and so hotmelt adhesive arranged inside the shrink tube and/or on the outer circumference of the contact point region is heated to its melting temperature. The invention also relates to a device for sealing a contact point region and to a sealing at such a region.

A wire harness including an electric wire that has a core wire and a core wire coating that coats the core wire, a connector that is attached to an end of the electric wire, and a seal that is interposed between the electric wire and the connector, wherein a tube with a modulus of elasticity higher than that of the core wire coating, and an outer coating that coats the tube from an outer side are provided between the electric wire and the seal.

An electrical terminal having a terminal attachment portion, a wire attachment portion and a transition portion. The wire attachment portion is configured to receive wires of a cable therein. The transition portion extends between the terminal attachment portion and the wire attachment portion. A flow barrier is provided on the transition portion proximate an end of the transition portion. The flow barrier constrains an adhesive/sealant applied to the wires positioned in the wire attachment portion from flowing from the wire attachment portion to the terminal attachment portion.
