ABSTRACT:
A circuit card comprises a printed wiring board, a plastic faceplate therefor, and a resilient electroconductive sheet metal strip extending the length of such plate and fastened to its rear side. The strip at its opposite ends provides spring contacts electrically coupled by the strip's middle part. The card is adapted to be inserted in a holding bay with a rectangular front opening of greater width than height and bordered at its top and bottom by designation strips for the cards to be put in such bay. Metallic structural means adjacent the opening provides an a.c. circuit path extending around the opening in a closed loop. When the card is inserted in the bay, the spring contacts engage with metal-surfaced regions on the designation strips to provide an electrical shunt across such loop and, thereby, to reduce electromagnetic interference radiating through such opening from the bay's interior.
