Abstract
An electrical component holder consists of a socket-like housing (3) formed near its bottom with an opening (2). A foot-contact for engagement by an end cap (6) of an electrical component is formed as a metal tongue (1) having a bent back springy contact arm (5). The foot-contact can be inserted into the housing through the opening (2) in a resiliently compressed state but is subsequently retained within the housing by the position adopted by the contact of (5) under its own resilience.
