A contact block (10) is provided with a first ledge (34) and a second ledge (38) that deflectably engage a first edge (46) and a second edge (48) of an opening (44) in the housing (42) of an electrical device. The contact block (10) mechanically supports at least one electrical contact (14) to provide a contact surface (18) whereby the first electrical device (40) may be electrically interconnected with a second electrical device (60). The contact block (10) is snapped into place during assembly until it is secured during a final assembly operation.
