Abstract
A household refrigeration appliance has a housing and at least one electronics module in the housing. The electronics module is covered at least in sections by a metallic cover plate and the cover plate is in electrical contact with a further metal component, in particular with a metal sheet, of the household refrigeration appliance. The cover plate is thereby connected by way of the metal component to an electrical ground connection. The ground connection has a metallic grounding claw, separate from the cover plate and from the metal component, by way of which the cover plate and the metal component are connected to at least one connection element.
