The invention claimed is: 1. Electrical connector for electrical devices, the electrical connector comprising a housing comprised of a housing body encompassing a soldering area at which solder is to be soldered to a glass pane and a connector area electrically conductively joined to the soldering

The invention claimed is: 1. Electrical connector for electrical devices, the electrical connector comprising a housing comprised of a housing body encompassing a soldering area at which solder is to be soldered to a glass pane and a connector area electrically conductively joined to the soldering area, the housing body including a portion at least partially open at the soldering area, solder contained in the housing and extending over the partially open portion of the housing body, the housing further comprising a cover for a side of the housing body opposite the partially open portion, the housing body including lower edges for facing the pane of glass and upper edges remote therefrom, respective first and second water-tight double-sided adhesive tapes adhered to the respective lower and upper edges for water-tight sealing of the housing, respective protective films covering the side of the respective tapes not adhered to the housing body, whereby, when the protective films are removed and the cover is assembled with the housing body and the lower edges of the housing body is adhered to a glass pane, the housing with the glass pane forms a water-tight enclosure. 2. Electrical connector according to claim 1, further comprising at least one solder terminal in the soldering area. 3. Electrical connector according to claim 2, further comprising an electrical connector line connected to the solder terminal. 4. Electrical connector according to claim 3, wherein the electrical connector line is an electrical connector pin. 5. Electrical connector according to claim 3, wherein the electrical connector line is an electrical cord. 6. Electrical connector according to claim 3, wherein an end of the electrical connector line at the connector is comprised of copper. 7. Electrical connector according to claim 3, wherein the solder comprises a solder sleeve on an end of the electrical connector line at the connector area. 8. Electrical connector according to claim 7, wherein the solder sleeve is crimped onto the end of the electrical line. 9. Electrical connector according to claim 1, further comprising apertures in the housing body for electrical connector lines to be received in the connector area and a sealant in the housing for water-tight sealing of the apertures. 10. Electrical connector according to claim 9, wherein the sealant comprises silicone rubber. 11. Method of securely connecting an electrical connector according to claim 1 to a glass pane, comprising removing the protective film from the first double-sided adhesive tape, pressing the lower edges of the housing body against the glass pane thereby to adhere the housing body to the glass pane, heating and melting the solder, removing the protective film from the second double-sided adhesive tape, and closing the housing body by pressing the cover onto the upper edges of the housing body thereby to adhere the cover to the housing body.
