ELECTRICAL CENTER FOR VEHICLE

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an electrical center (12) for distributing power to an electrical system (14) of a vehicle (10).SOLUTION: An electrical center (12) includes a printed circuit board (PCB) (28) configured to fit inside a cover (32). The PCB (28) includes a first electrical component (30) electrically connected to an electrical system (14). A first retainer (36) fixes the PCB (28) to the cover (32) and protects an exposed side of the PCB (28). The cover (32), the PCB (28), and the first retainer (36) cooperate so as to form an assembly (24) that protects the PCB (28) when they are shipped. A base (26) is configured to be mechanically and electrically connected to the assembly (24). The base (26) includes a second electrical component (46) electrically connected to the electrical system (14).
