Abstract
A system has an electronics housing and a grounding contact assembly for electromechanical switchgear that can be mounted on a mounting rail, wherein the grounding contact assembly can be mounted in the electronics housing. The base region of the electronics housing faces a mounting rail, is provided with an externally accessible mounting duct for a grounding contact that can be mounted in the duct, and contacts the mounting rail in a spring-leaded manner. The contact part has a blade contact at one end and at the other end a terminal receiving part which is angled perpendicularly to the first free end of the blade contact and is designed as a detent pin. The grounding contact assembly can be pushed into the mounting duct irrespective of the position of the electronics housing on the mounting rail.
