Abstract
An electrical connection box for a vehicle has a body and a power distribution element. A portion of the body upstanding from one face receives, in use, an electrical component such as a relay which at a fastening location is joined to the distribution element. A casing covers the component receiving portion. To reduce the risk of accidental contact with the fastening location, the box has a removable U-shaped cover covering the fastening location, the cover being enclosed within the casing. The cover has an aperture through which the electrical component projects, and the periphery of the aperture may contact the component receiving portion or the electrical component.
