    Patent number: 6039582
    Abstract: A ballast housing (10) comprising a base (100), a cover (200), an input connector (300), and an output connector (400). Input connector (300) and output connector (400) serve as end-caps of the housing (10), and provide solderless connections between external wires and the ballast circuitry. The base (100) has formed edges (132,142) that are received into corresponding channels (242,252) in the cover (200). Tabs on the connectors (300,400) and corresponding apertures in the base (100) and cover (200) provide a secure ballast housing that accommodates efficient provision of input and output wires.
