ABSTRACT:
A housing for an electrical circuit component such as a magnetic contact reed switch for use in a security system. Clamps are provided for connecting the electrical component to conductors of the circuit, with apertures in a wall of the housing permitting insertion of the conductors in the proper location relative to the clamps. Clamping screws for securing the electrical connections are accessible only through apertures provided in the opposite ends of the housing. Recessed location of the clamping screws protects against inadvertent or surreptitious short circuiting around the switch. A flexibly attached mounting bracket includes a latch to hold the housing alongside the bracket.
