ABSTRACT:
A protector module (50) includes a housing (52) having cavities (58) into which are inserted electrical components such as surge protector elements (150). A lid (60) is securable to housing (52) by hinge tabs (196) having free ends (204) which are insertable through slots (200) in embossments along side surface (198) of housing (52). Latch surfaces (210) of free ends (204) latch beneath corresponding latch surfaces (212) of end walls of slots (200). Free ends (204) extend outwardly at right angles at bends (206) so that lid (60) can remain attached to the housing and retain a vertical orientation unassisted when opened permitting access to the inside of the housing (52).
