ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Fastening a circuit board In an enclosure that has a front face panel with actuating means thereon for activating switches that are mounted on the circuit board is effected by a self-compensating latch system. The system employs a plurality of mounting ledges molded to the sidewalls of the enclosure and spaced a chosen distance from the front panel upon which the circuit board rests. A resilient finger with an arch-shaped locking member attached to one end is integrally molded within the walls of the enclosure near each of the mounting ledges. The fingers flex away from the edges of the circuit board as the board is introduced into the enclosure via a rear opening and then flex inwardly causing the arch-shaped locking members to force the circuit board against the plurality of mounting ledges with a spring-load type of engagement. A second embodiment of the invention is also included.
