A housing for receiving an electrical device and connecting the device into an electrical circuit has a pair of identical housing members joined together along confronting interior faces by complementary catch elements formed integral with the housing members. The electrical device is received within a receptacle in the housing and captured in place in the receptacle by the engagement of a blade contact in the device with a tooth projecting into a socket of a complementary connector in the housing.
