  • the first part of the conductors has two ends which can be connected to the circuit, the second part of the connector being closer to a first end to make the connecting conductor reversible.
  • a modular box for electrical equipment comprises a first flange 1 and a second flange 2 shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 respectively.
  • the first flange 1 has a first side wall 3 and first walls of contour 4.
  • the second flange 2 also has a second side wall 5 and second contour walls 6.
  • the flanges are arranged facing face and the first and second contour walls are positioned in contact so to close the outline of said housing.
  • the housing has a bottom 7 intended to be fixed on a support, a first upstream side 8 and a second downstream side 9 perpendicular to the bottom and side walls.
  • the support is preferably a symmetrical rail.
  • the flanges 1 and 2 are held by terminal blocks 10 and 11 shown in Figures 3 and 4.
  • Each terminal block comprises a first part 12 intended to be in contact with an upstream or downstream side of the contour walls, and two retaining walls 13 and 14 perpendicular to said first part.
  • Each retaining wall of the terminal blocks is in contact with a face exterior of each side wall to keep the flanges face to face in their position respective.
