1. A method for manufacturing an electrical device, the method comprising:
providing a cable wire and a cable insulation arranged around the cable wire such that a section of the cable wire at least partially longitudinally protrudes out of the cable insulation;
providing a heat-shrink tube at least partially around the cable insulation and the section of the cable wire;
providing a sealing material at least partially within the heat-shrink tube;
molding a thermoset over at least a part of the heat-shrink tube surrounding the section of the cable wire; and
applying heat to the heat-shrink tube to at least partially shrink the tube, thereby forcing the sealing material into the cable insulation to seal any gaps between the cable wire and the cable insulation.
