The top and bottom covers are joined by mechanical attachment to the frame and are grounded together by electro-mechanical connection and provide for grounding between the PC board and the covers. Mechanical latching mechanism provides for easy assembly of frame and covers by all vertical assembly. Integral spring tabs provide grounding of PC board and provide frictional pressure against PC board to provide stability of assembly.
