Abstract
A method for the attachment of electrical components to circuit boards where the electrical components are enclosed by a housing and held in place by a retaining device. The method enables a smaller and more compact construction for switching devices. The connection of the electrical components with the housing enclosing them creates a additional point for the absorption of thermal and mechanical stresses in addition to the connection with the circuit board.
