Abstract: An electrical distribution center includes a bracket. A mounting plate is secured to the bracket and includes an aperture having a perimeter. An electrical connector is disposed within the aperture and includes locating structure that is captured between the perimeter and the bracket to align and to retain the electrical connector relative to the bracket. One locating structure includes spring arms that cooperate with notches provided by the aperture. Another locating structure includes an edge captured beneath a periphery of the aperture. The mounting plate is snap-fit to the bracket over the electrical connectors.

Abstract: An electrical distribution center, such as those used in a motor vehicle to provide and manage electrical power from a battery to electrical modules such as headlights, taillights, wiper motors, etc. is presented herein. The electrical distribution center includes a housing containing electrical switching devices, such as relays to control the flow of electrical power. The housing also contains fuses to protect various circuits connected to the electrical distribution center. The fuses are arranged on the exterior walls of the housing and are accessible for service and replacement without requiring a cover to be removed to access an internal cavity containing the relays. There are no fuses within the internal cavity of the electrical distribution center. The electrical distribution center is connected to a number of wiring harnesses via electrical connectors terminating the wiring harnesses and interconnecting the electrical distribution center to the power supply and electrical modules.
