SPLASH-PROOF CHARGING PORT HOUSING FOR AN ELECRICALLY DRIVABLE MOTOR VEHICLE

A charging port housing for selectively connecting a charging cable provided for charging an electrically drivable motor vehicle including a lower shell which can be positioned at a charging opening of a motor vehicle body. The lower shell includes a socket opening for receiving a plug socket for the charging cable, and an upper shell fastened to the lower shell. The upper shell includes a through-opening for passing the charging cable to the plug socket, wherein at least one drain opening bounded by both the lower shell and the upper shell is provided for the gravity-driven drainage of liquid. Configuring the drain opening as a recess between the shells of the charging port housing makes it possible to cost-effectively implement a water drainage of splash water entering via the through-opening, and thus enable a cost-effective protection of electrical components of a motor vehicle against dust and splash water.
