A housing for a medical implant that includes a housing wall made of an electrically insulating material with an inner face and an outer face and an electrical transmission through the housing wall. The electrical transmission includes an electrically conductive first terminal contact surface disposed on the inner face of the housing wall, an electrically conductive second terminal contact surface disposed on the outer face of the housing wall, a capacitor integrated into the housing wall and that includes a first capacitor electrode and a second capacitor electrode, a first connection line that electrically connects the first terminal contact surface to the first capacitor electrode, and a second connection line that electrically connects the second terminal contact surface to the second capacitor electrode. No continuously electrically conductive connection exists between the first terminal contact surface and the second terminal contact surface.
