Abstract
A housing arrangement of a power electronics device includes one power module or several identical power modules, each module with at least one part connected to a hazardous voltage, the arrangement further including a housing part having room for at least one power module. Each power module includes an enclosure part which essentially surrounds the power module and includes electrically insulating material. All the external connections of the power module are placed on one single wall of the enclosure part. The power modules and the enclosure part of the power modules are arranged such that when the power module is installed to the housing part the power module is electrically insulated from the housing part and external connections of the power module are directed to the front side of the housing part.
