Abstract
A method of and arrangement for mounting an electric component, which comprises a holding socket having contact legs, on a circuit board. The holding socket is placed in a desirable position by inserting the contact legs into corresponding apertures of the circuit board, and is preliminarily fixed with respect to the circuit board by the use of a device in the shape of an apertured, non-conductive plate which is applied on the protruding contact legs on the opposite side of the circuit board. The plate retains the socket by friction forces which are present between one or more of the contact legs and the edges of pertaining apertures in the plate. Thereafter the wiring of the protruding legs is performed.
