Abstract
An enclosure for electronic circuits intended to operate at great depths beneath the sea in which the circuits are protected from stresses induced by the accumulation of mechanical tolerances during assembly, from shock during transportation, and from deformation of the enclosure at great pressure. The circuits being accessible in their final configuration during testing before insertion into the enclosure and sealing. Cable lengths within the enclosure are minimized to ensure reliability.
