Abstract

A relay box having a carrier plate and a plug-in module is disclosed. A conductor to be switched is brought into electrical contact with a relay through the plug-in module and a plug contact arranged in the plug-in module. The relay is plugged both into the plug-in module and into the carrier plate of the relay box through plug contacts. Because of the modular arrangement, increased flexibility is possible when using a prefabricated carrier plate having terminal positions provided for a plurality of relays.
