Abstract: An electronic module (1) for a modular control device is described, in which a multiplicity of electronic modules (1) are connected to one another via a databus. The electronic module (1) has an insulating material housing (21), a printed circuit board (17) which has electronic components in the insulating material housing (21), a conductor connection plane (8) on an upper side (7) of the electronic module (1) having a multiplicity of conductor insertion openings (7) leading to conductor connections (13), and status displays (10) adjacent to the conductor connection plane (8) on the upper side of the electronic module (1).
