Method of manufacturing a charging device with a contact housing of an electrically powered vehicle

A method of manufacturing a charging device with a contact housing of an electrically powered vehicle including the steps of providing at least one electrical contact element having a contact area, the electrical contact element being electrically contactable with a corresponding contact element in said contact area; inserting the electrical contact element into an injection mold; and closing the injection mold and forming a cavity around the electrical contact element within the injection mold. Finally, an injection molding material is injected into the cavity of the injection molding tool, so as to produce a contact housing with integrated electrical contact element.
