ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to an electrical device with a modular construction, comprising at least one equipment module (1), preferably several equipment modules (1), the module(s) being fixed onto a mounting rail (2). To mount or dismount a module (1) from a mounting rail (2) in a simple manner, the module (1) is fixed onto an adapter (3) for mounting on the mounting rail (2). The adapter (3) for one embodiment fulfills its fixing function by use of a bistable snap-on process and is configured in such a way that no tool is required for the manual mounting or dismounting process. This adapter (3) includes an actuator button (8) used to move catch hooks (5) against spring forces to enable mounting and dismounting of the equipment module (1) to the adapter (3) and also to move catch hooks (18) or (23) to enable mounting and dismounting of adapter (3) to the mounting rail (2).
