Abstract
An electrical packaging system, preferably a fluorescent lamp assembly, includes an assembly (10) having a housing (12) with a planar base (14) carrying affixed thereto a flat, flexible circuit (50) with holes (52) exposing conductors (56). Spacially disposed components (28, 40) are affixed to the housing with terminals extending to bear against a resilient conductive member (38, 44) to interconnect components to the circuit. The conductive medium may be bonded to either the terminals or to the circuit to facilitate handling.
