The present invention relates to a seal housing for an electrical device, such as an electromagnetic relay, and a sealed relay using the seal housing. A seal housing comprises a base, a cover adapted to cover an inwardly facing side of the base, thereby forming a housing for accommodating components of the electrical device, and a sealing plate adapted to partially cover an outwardly facing side of the base and protect the base from fluid condensate. The sealing plate has an outward side with a profile that is shaped to divert fluid or fluid condensate formed at the outward side of the sealing plate, so that device failure due to short-circuits between terminals protruding from the base can be prevented. The intersection regions between the base, the cover and/or the electrical terminals are sealed by applying a sealing compound over discrete regions along the intersections regions that are not covered by the sealing plate, thereby reducing the amount of sealing compound required.
