CASINGS OR CONSTRUCTIONAL DETAILS OF ELECTRIC APPARATUS; MANUFACTURE OF ASSEMBLAGES OF ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS ## Abstract The invention relates to a case 1 intended to be fixed in an electrical cabinet, said case comprising a frontal opening which can be closed by a means of closing 3, and further comprising means of fastening 5 making it possible to fix said case 1 in said electrical cabinet, in particular on a metal rail, and said case 1 further comprising (a) at least one anti-magnetic and/or anti-static protective means 4, (b) a re-writeable medium 2, 21 for storing computer data, which is protected by said anti-magnetic and/or anti-static protective means 4. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A case for saving technical information by a user and intended to be fixed in a technical cabinet, and in particular intended to be fixed on a metal rail, said case comprising: a front side including a frontal opening and a means for closing that can be folded back while remaining fixed to the case, said means for closing making it possible to close said frontal opening; at least two opposed mounting lugs extending from a rear side of the case and projecting in a direction that is perpendicular to the rear side of the case, the at least two opposed mounting lugs configured and adapted for releasably fastening said case to a corresponding mating configuration of the metal rail in said technical cabinet on said metal rail; at least one of an anti-magnetic and an anti-static protective means; and a re-writeable flash type medium for storing computer data, said flash type medium being fixed, and being protected by at least one of said anti-magnetic and anti-static protective means, as well as by said means of closing, said re-writeable flash type medium for storing computer data is accessed via said front opening of said case, wherein said re-writeable flash type medium is a memory of a USB key type comprising a USB socket characterized in that the USB key type memory is fixed in the case or in its means of closing, in such a way that its USB socket is accessible after the opening of said means of closing, in such a way as to be able to connect a cable to said socket. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The case as set forth in claim 1, wherein said means of closing is a cover or a lid. ### Claim 3 (depends on 2) The case as set forth in claim 2, characterized in that it further comprises: a means of teletransmission able to transmit data from the re-writeable flash type medium to at least one of a user and an appropriate connector for connection to a computer network. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The case as set forth in claim 1, characterized in that the at least one of the anti-magnetic and the anti-static protective means is selected from the group consisting of: conductive coatings applied to at least one portion of an external surface or an internal surface of said case, a metal box, a plastic case coated with a conductive coating, at least one metal wall, a wire and/or wire netting Faraday cage, a glue or paste loaded with conductive fillers which surround at least partially said re-writeable flash type medium. ### Claim 5 (depends on 4) The case as set forth in claim 4, characterized in that it is a case containing a device selected from the group consisting of: a circuit-breaker, a fuse carrier, a cut-off switch, a switch, a cut-off switch, a differential switch, a contactor, a day/night contactor, a slave switch, a circuit breaker, a disconnecting circuit breaker, a differential circuit breaker, a remote control switch, a relay, an automatic device, a regulator, a beginning and/or end of travel contact, a timer, a lighting system, a clock, a scheduling system, a lighted indicator, a pushbutton, a single or multiple-position switch. ### Claim 6 (depends on 1) The case as set forth in claim 1, characterized in that it further comprises a keyboard for entry of a password, and at least one or more means of display. ### Claim 7 (depends on 6) The case as set forth in claim 6, characterized in that it further comprises a memory of the ROM type, used or programmed in such a way as to allow for the stacking of new information, without erasing old information. ### Claim 8 (depends on 1) The case as set forth in claim 1, wherein the fixed re-writeable medium for storing computer data includes recording of plans or technical information describing the technical installation pertaining to the technical cabinet wherein said case is installed. ### Claim 9 (depends on 8) The case as set forth in claim 8, wherein the case is adapted for a technical installation located in residential premises, individual homes, flats, industrial premises, commercial premises, hospitals, warehouses, technical premises, computer rooms, public assembly buildings, high-rise buildings, factories, construction site electrical boxes, trains, aircraft, boats, mobile electric generating sets, motorized agricultural vehicles, military systems and vehicles, private cars, utility vehicles, sign posts, road sign terminals, road traffic light posts, information terminals, time-date stampers or vending machines. ### Claim 10 A method for updating technical information describing a technical installation pertaining to a technical cabinet, said method comprising: opening a frontal opening on a front side of a case mounted to a metal rail of a technical cabinet by at least two opposed mounting lugs extending from a rear side of the case and projecting in a direction that is perpendicular to the rear side of the case, said frontal opening of the case including means of closing that can be folded back while remaining fixed to the case; connecting a first socket of a cable to a re-writeable medium of the case via said front opening, wherein the rewritable medium is a USB key type, the cable is configured to connect by a second socket to a computer or a computer network; transferring information between the computer or the computer network and said re-writeable medium; disconnecting said first socket of the cable from the socket of said re-writeable medium; and closing said means of closing associated with the case. ### Claim 11 (depends on 10) The method set forth in claim 10, wherein, before the transfer of information between the writeable medium and the computer or the computer network, at least one password is entered. ### Claim 12 (depends on 4) The case as set forth in claim 4, characterized in that it is a case containing a device selected from the group consisting of: a circuit-breaker, a fuse carrier, and a cut-off switch.
