Abstract
On at least one of two walls (16) (17) a terminal (7) housing (21) has a rib (44) respectively (45) that causes lateral distortion of a tubular housing (38) (39) which is part of a cover (3) so that the head (11) of a bolt of the terminal is gripped. This device, which is extremely simple to assemble, is recommended to make the terminal bolts so they cannot be lost and to hold them in an open position prior to wiring.
