Abstract
The invention relates to an arrangement for connecting electrical installations or equipment to chassis containing electrical apparatus. Connectors, identical to those used within the chassis, are located on the exterior side walls of the chassis, and cooperate with a series of detachable plugs which are slidably guided into aligned cooperation with the connectors by means of ribs on the side walls, and latchingly engage with the side walls to retain them electrically interconnected with the connectors. The height of each plug is a multiple of the pitch between the rows of connector pins of the connectors, thus enabling several plugs to be plugged, side-by-side, to the same connector.
