COMPONENT FOR HIGH-VOLTAGE SYSTEM OF A VEHICLE

A component for a high-voltage electric system of a vehicle includes a body having a circular cross section; an electrical device encapsulated within the body; a first electrically conductive contact area arranged circumferentially on the body and configured to form a first electrical connection to the electrical device; a second electrically conductive contact area arranged circumferentially on the body and configured to form a second electrical connection to the electric device, the second electrically conductive contact area being separated from the first electrically conductive contact area in the axial direction of the body; a cap attached to an end portion of the body; and a fastening mechanism configured to secure the component in a socket.
