Abstract
The present invention relates to an electrical device for rail mounting. Such electrical devices are mounted in use in a side-by-side relationship on a carrier rail. An electrical device for rail mounting comprises a housing having a rail receiving recess therein, at least one edge of said recess being defined by an end region of a latch member that is movable relative to the housing in a direction transverse to the recess, and resilient means biasing the latch member to move in a direction to reduce the width of said recess. Said resilient means comprise a torsion spring having a first leg and a second leg deflectable around a hinge region, said first leg resting against a protrusion of the housing, and said second leg resting against the latch member.
