Patent attributes
Casing members of an electrical junction box are provided in their sidewalls with openings for receiving a connector housing for lateral connection, respectively in order to provide an electrical junction box in which the position of a connector housing for lateral connection to be provided on a sidewall of a casing can be changed, thereby sharing the electrical junction box with different specifications of vehicles. The lateral connector housing is detachably secured to the openings. The lateral connector housing is adapted to receive a connector. A closing lid is detachably secured to the openings in the case where the connector is not connected to the housing. The openings are provided symmetrically in the right and left sidewalls of the casing members. Internal circuits are contained in the casing members. Some internal circuits adjacent the openings are formed into symmetrically same configurations and disposed symmetrically in the casing members. This enables the electrical junction box to be shared with a symmetrical arrangement in a specification of a vehicle.
