  • This frame 2300 has a circular shape and partially closes the front of the housing 2400. It has two latching tabs 2310 which extend rearward and are positioned in two complementary notches of the side wall of the housing 2400.
  • the frame 2300 furthermore comprises means for mounting on the housing 2400.
  • these are snap-fit teeth 2320 which cooperate with retention with windows 2420 of the side wall of the housing 2400 ( figures 38 and 39 ).
  • the electrical device 800 is housed in the housing 2400, behind the frame 2300.
  • the frame 2300 has a central opening for access to the electrical switchgear mechanism 2500 of the electrical outlet 2100 which is closed at the front by the trim 2110 of the electrical outlet forming the receiving well of this electrical outlet 2100 ( figures 34, 35 , 38 and 39 ).
  • the switchgear mechanism 2500 of the electrical outlet 2100 notably comprises two cells 2511 for phase and neutral connection and a pin 2512 for earth connection ( figures 36, 37 ).
  • This switchgear mechanism 2500 also includes a rear connector comprising two connection lugs 2521 for phase and neutral and a connection pin 2522 for earth ( figures 36, 37 and 38 ) which protrude from the bottom of the 2400 box backwards.
  • connection lugs 2521 and the connection pin 2522 are electrically connected to the cells 2511 and to the connection pin 2512 of the electrical outlet. This arrangement allows simple and rapid wiring of the electrical outlet 2100.
  • connection terminals 30 of the electrical device 800 extend from the first face 811 of the support plate 810, towards the front of the electrical outlet 2100.
  • the printed circuit is thus supplied by the electrical outlet 2100 when the latter is connected to the local electrical network.
  • the intermediate connection elements 820 ( figures 37 and 38 ) electrically connect the phase and neutral cells of the electrical outlet 2100, connected to the local electrical network, to the connection terminals 30 of the electrical device 800, which are connected to the printed circuit.
  • intermediate connection elements 820 are in the form of bent blades coming from formation with the cells, the free end of which is introduced into the corresponding connection terminal, through the openings 813 of the support plate 810.
  • the electrical equipment according to the invention may include other electrical equipment mechanisms.
  • It may in particular comprise an electrical plug, an electrical device as described above, and at least one intermediate connection element connecting the connection terminal of the electrical device and one of the connection pins of the electrical plug.
