Abstract
A component housing for electrical and electronic circuits and components includes a frame constituting respective narrow sides of the housing at least one of which has a plurality of openings having different configurations in conformity with various connecting techniques to be used. Two lateral covering plates are arrestingly connected to the frame. A contact protection housing portion of an electrically insulating material extends over at least a partial region of the one narrow side of the frame and bounds a receiving space at the region of the one narrow side of the frame, especially for contact protected accommodation of lug-shaped connectors which extend upwardly beyond the one narrow side of the component housing. The contact protection housing portion has apertures that give access to those of the openings which are provided in the region of the one narrow side of the frame and is held in position by the lateral covering plates.
