Abstract (en)

The object of the invention is to provide a solution that allows a simple and fast installation fo connectors within a limited space, wherein the resulting electrical connection arrangement is flexible and compact. This object is achieved by a housing (1) for a connector (11) that can be plugged into a counter connector (12) along a connection direction (C), wherein the housing (1) has a first pair (110) of outer faces (111, 112), the outer faces (111, 112) of the first pair (110) being complementary to each other and lying opposite each other in a first stacking direction (P1) that is perpendicular to the connection direction (C), and wherein the housing (1) has a second pair (120) of outer faces (121, 122), the outer faces (121, 122) of the second pair (120) being complementary to each other and lying opposite each other in a second stacking direction (P2) that is perpendicular to the connection direction (C), wherein the first stacking direction (P1) differs from the second stacking direction (P2).
