ABSTRACT:
A telephone instrument housing constructed from a first section (1) and a second section (2), the first. The second section (2) comprises three identical first sub-sections (4,5,6) which are substantially rectangular in plan. The number of first sub-sections is dependent on the dimensions of the first section (1) which is formed in one piece. The first sub-sections (4,5,6) comprise a first part defining a regular array of apertures (22, FIG. 2) suitable for locating an array of pushbuttons (8). The array of apertures (22) extends across the full width of the rectangle so that when two or more subsections are butted together a continuous regular array of apertures extends across the arrangement of first subsections. A cover plate (9) covers locations in which no pushbutton is provided, the cover plate being located by the apertures (22). The first sub-sections also comprise a second part defining a single aperture (14) which extends over a major portion of the second part. A further sub-assembly (11) is mounted in the aperture (14) in the second part of one or more first sub-sections.
