OG exemplary drawing
 
1. A housing for a circuit, the housing comprising:
a top wall that includes a top side and a bottom side opposite the top side, the top wall defines an aperture extended therethrough, the aperture configured for receiving a fastener;
a bottom wall that includes a top side and a bottom side opposite the top side, the bottom wall integrally formed with the top wall, positioned directly below the aperture in a height direction such that the top side of the bottom wall faces the bottom side of the top wall, and extended across the aperture with respect to the height direction; and
at least one side wall extended in the height direction, connecting the top wall and the bottom wall,
wherein the circuit is mounted on the bottom side of the bottom wall such that the circuit is on an exterior of the housing,
wherein the bottom side of the top wall and the top side of the bottom wall are spaced in the height direction, and together with the at least one side wall define an interior of the housing, and the aperture extends to the interior of the housing,
wherein the bottom side of the top wall, the top side of the bottom wall, and the at least one side wall cooperate to obstruct egress of debris from the interior of the housing to the circuit at the bottom side of the bottom wall, and
wherein the housing defines an opening above the bottom wall, at a side of the bottom wall opposite the at least one side wall, and the opening extends from the exterior of the housing to the same interior of the housing defined by the bottom side of the top wall, the top side of the bottom wall and the at least one side wall.
