Abstract
A housing (FIG. 2) for an electrical or electronic component which includes a base (10) and an enclosure cap (30), which are held together by a resilient wire-type clip (20) affixed to the base which extends along side of and then over across the top of the cap, compressively holding the cap to the base. The bottom, return leg (20AA) of the clip includes a laterally extended portion (22) at or near the front, side edge (31), from which is suspended a label holder (40; FIG. 3). An adhesively-backed label is affixed to the front display surface (43) of the holder and includes printed indicia indentifying the electrical or electronic component contained within the housing. The clip of wire-like material extends over about eighty (80%) of the width of the sides of the cap in 'zig-zag' fashion and extends diagonally across the top of the cap from near one corner to near the opposing corner.
