Electrical device having an indicator light

Abstract

An electrical device with an indicator light includes a housing and a light source which is arranged in the housing and is set up to couple light into a housing wall of the housing, which propagates through the material of the housing wall to a light-decoupling part of the housing. The light emitted by the light source can exit the housing through the light-decoupling part of the housing. The indicator light is formed by at least the light-decoupling part of the housing. The light-decoupling part of the housing or a non-light-decoupling part of the housing which delimits the light-decoupling part of the housing is produced by a local mechanical, chemical and/or physical treatment of the housing. The treatment is carried out in a fully assembled state of the electrical device. Furthermore, embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a method of manufacturing the electrical device.
