A device includes a housing including a rail mount and a stopper to lock an engagement flange (RAb) on a DIN rail (RA) with the rail mount receiving the DIN rail (RA). A locking member is at a locking position to lock an engagement flange (RAb) on the DIN rail (RA) and at a release position to unlock the engagement flange (RAb) with the rail mount receiving the DIN rail (RA). A release button including a pressing portion to be pressed by a user is located in the housing with the pressing portion exposed outside the housing. An arm moves the locking member from the locking position to the release position in response to movement of the release button from a standby position to a pressed position deeper in the housing than the standby position.
