Abstract
Housings for emergency unit luminaires with a front portion that includes a printed circuit board and other operational components and a back portion that includes electrical contacts configured to connect to a source of external power. When the front and back portions are engaged, contact pads projecting from the printed circuit board are guided into engagement with the electrical contacts of the back portion for connection to the external power source. The front portion is disengaged from the back portion, and thus disconnected from power, when needed, for example, for maintenance of the unit.
