Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2846345A1] A modular electrical apparatus (10; 100) is described, comprising coupling elements (17, 18; 117, 118) for coupling said apparatus (10; 100) to a further modular electrical apparatus (31) such that said apparatuses (10; 100; 31), once they are coupled together, have two respective juxtaposed side walls (12, 34). The modular electrical apparatus (10; 100) comprises a generally box-shaped apparatus body (11) including a first coupling side wall (12) and a second side wall (13) opposite said first side wall (12). The coupling elements (17, 18; 117, 118) comprise at least one elastically flexible coupling tooth (17; 117) projecting from said first side wall (12), the coupling tooth (17; 117) being suitable to selectively take a coupling configuration, wherein said tooth (17; 117) is elastically uncharged, and an uncoupling configuration, wherein said tooth is deflected and elastically charged with respect to the coupling configuration. The modular electrical apparatus (10; 100) being characterized in that it comprises holding elements (21, 22; 121, 122) suitable to releasably hold said coupling tooth (17; 117) in the uncoupling configuration.
