Abstract
An electrical unit is described which has a housing or housing part and a fist printed circuit board and a second printed circuit board which can be placed in contact with one another so as to be electrically conductive. The housing or housing part includes at least one aligning element suitable for guiding and fixing both the first printed circuit board and the second printed circuit board. The first printed circuit board has a cutout which is matched to the cross section of the aligning element and through which the aligning element protrudes when the first printed circuit board has been fixed. The free end of the aligning element has a contour which acts to guide the second printed circuit board when contact is made with the latter.
