The relay-connector holder (12) can comprise an intermediate member (12e) having a substantially polygonal cross-section, side faces and end portions, at least one of the end portions comprising case-fixing means (12a), whilst at least one side face of the intermediate member (12e) comprises connector-fixing means (12c). The relay connector (15) can comprise an external face on which intermediate-member-fixing means are provided, such that, when the relay connector (15) is mounted in the relay-connector holder (12), the connector-fixing means (12c) engage with the intermediate-member-fixing means. The first case (13) can comprise internal faces (13a) on which holder-fixing means (13c) are provided, such that, when the relay-connector holder (12) is mounted into the first case (13), the case-fixing means (12a) engage with the holder-fixing means (13c).
