A wire harness includes an electric wire, a braided conductor covering the electric wire, a grommet having a tubular insertion portion through which the electric wire and the braided conductor are inserted, a water stop sheet sandwiched between an inner peripheral surface of the insertion portion and the braided conductor, and a fixture attached to the insertion portion so as to reduce a diameter of the insertion portion. The water stop sheet includes a base material layer having a plurality of pores communicating with each other in a thickness direction of the water stop sheet and a sealing compound layer laminated on the base material layer. The sealing compound layer is deformed so as to enter gaps between thin conductor wires constituting the braided conductor and the pores of the base material layer.

A grommet assembly includes a wire harness and a grommet including a hollow channel configured to receive the wire harness therein. At least one rib extends inwards from and substantially annularly about the interior surface of the hollow channel. At least one port configured to fluidly couple the hollow channel with an exterior environment is defined by the grommet. Material is injected into the channel through the port to secure the grommet relative to the wire harness. The material injected into the channel flows through interstices located between adjacent wires that define the wire harness so as to encapsulate the wires. The injected material also flows into other voids and openings located within the hollow channel. Upon setting, the injected material is configured to prevent movement of the grommet relative to the wire harness and to prevent the passage of contaminants through the grommet assembly.

The insulating bushing includes: a first bushing provided with a first bushing passage through which the busbar passes; a second bushing provided with a first bushing-receiving portion receiving an upper portion of the first bushing inserted through a lower portion of the first bushing-receiving portion and a second bushing passage through which the busbar passes; and a cover coupled to an outer surface of the second bushing and provided with a cover passage through which the busbar passes.

A surgical instrument having: a wall; an electrically insulating substrate; an electrical connection, wherein at least a portion of the electrical connection is applied on an exterior surface of the electrically insulating substrate; an insulating layer applied on the portion of the electrical connection; and a hermetic connection layer applied to the insulating layer, wherein the hermetic connection layer is hermetically connected to the wall to separate a hermetic chamber from an outer area.

A high-voltage bushing has an internal conductor and an insulating body which surrounds the internal conductor along its longitudinal direction. The internal conductor is routed out of the insulating body at a head end of the high-voltage bushing. A fastening flange is arranged on the insulating body at an end opposite the head end. An outer housing encloses the internal conductor and the insulating body from the fastening flange up to and including the head end in a moisture-tight manner. A high-voltage installation has a high-voltage conductor which is routed through a housing wall of the high-voltage installation by way of the novel high-voltage bushing.

A cable-gland system provides a sealing function to openings in an electronic chassis that receive cables. The cable-gland system comprises a plurality of individual cable glands. Each of the plurality of individual cable glands includes an exterior end to be positioned adjacent an exterior of the chassis, and an interior end for positioning within the chassis. Each of the plurality of individual cable glands includes a through-hole extending between the exterior and interior ends for receiving one of the cables, and an outer surface between the exterior and interior ends. Each of the plurality of individual cable glands has a male projection on one side of the outer surface and a female recess on an opposing side of the outer surface. The cable glands are connectable to form the cable-gland system by mating the male projection on one cable gland with the female recess of an adjacent cable gland.

A hermetic terminal (110) includes a barrier wall (12) to be joined to a housing (11), a body (15) that is to be connected to a signal ground and is fixed to the barrier wall (12) via a first insulator (13), and a signal line (16) passing through the body (15) and fixed to the body (15) via a second insulator (14). When the barrier wall (12) is joined to the housing (11), a space (28) is formed between an inner wall of the housing (11) and a surface (31) of the body (15) intersecting an end face (29) of the body (15) positioned towards the inside of the housing (11).
