Abstract

The electrical apparatus combination includes a plurality of electrical components which are for instance an outlet apparatus socket, an inlet apparatus plug, an apparatus switch and a filter which in order to allow an electrical interconnection are arranged on a printed circuit board onto the reverse side of which conductors are placed onto which contact members such as contact prongs located in each electrical component and plugged onto the circuit board are soldered. A releasably mounted protective cover protects the bottom side of the printed circuit board which comprises the conductors and confers additional stability to the apparatus combination. The printed circuit board replaces the otherwise necessary electrical wiring between a plurality of electrical components having various functions.
