said flexible wire connection may comprise a wire buffer section configured so as to allow a part of the one or more wire connections to move together with the circuit board when the circuit board displacer is displaced in the interior space towards the extended position.
This may e.g. help to provide a reliable and/or cost efficient solution for allowing the circuit board to be displaced between the extended position and the retracted position, despite that electrical connections are provided between the circuit board and further electrical equipment. This may also help to provide a user friendly solution as the user may not need to disconnect internal wire connections in order to displace the circuit board displacer.
the wire buffer section may comprise one or more of a coiled, bended and/or looped wire section.
the service access opening may have an inner diameter that is less than 60 mm, such as less than 45 mm, such as less than 37 mm.
Such access openings may make it difficult to sufficiently access the connector(s) and/or the like at the circuit board when connecting or disconnecting a connecting member to the connector(s) at the circuit board.
