A set of circuit boards are mounted side by side and electrical connection is made to terminal pads disposed along one edge of each circuit board by connectors which are carried by swing arms. The swing arms are rotatably mounted on a support rod which also mounts a set of lower guide rails supporting the set of circuit boards. A set of status indicator lights are disposed along the same edge of each circuit board above each swing arm. A swing arm latching mechanism holds the swing arm in a vertical operating position. A circuit board latching mechanism holds the circuit board in place when the swing arm is pivoted to a maintenance position.

A circuit board assembly which comprises: a frame; an upper and a lower support rod mounted to the frame substantially parallel to each other; a plurality of lower guide rails mounted at regular intervals along the lower support rod; a plurality of upper guide rails mounted at regular intervals along the upper support rod, each of the upper guide rails being disposed above one of the lower guide rails to receive a circuit board therebetween; and an electrical connector associated with a circuit board which is mounted between one of the upper guide rails and one of the lower guide rails, the electrical connector being rotatably mounted at one end to one of the support rods in an interval between the guide rail which mounts the circuit board and an adjacent guide rail, the electrical connector being rotatable between an operating position in which it engages the circuit board and a maintenance position in which the circuit board can be removed from between the upper and lower guide rails which mount it.
