wherein the first assembly guide is arranged on a side surface lateral to the plug-in side of the housing,

wherein two openings for passing electrical contact elements are arranged on the side surface of the housing comprising the first assembly guide,

wherein the first assembly guide is arranged between the openings,

wherein the first assembly guide is configured for electrical shielding of the electrical contact elements in an area between the openings, and

wherein the plug-in side of the housing is guidable into a plugged-in position on the carrier by the engagement.

2 . The housing assembly of claim 1 , wherein the first assembly guide is shaped complementary to the first plug-in slot guide.

3 . The housing assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the first assembly guide is rail-shaped.

4 . The housing assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the first assembly guide forms a protrusion.

5 . The housing assembly according to claim 1 ,

wherein the housing has a second assembly guide on a further side surface lying laterally with respect to the plug-in side of the housing, and

wherein the second assembly guide is configured for engaging in a second plug-in slot guide.

6 . The housing assembly of claim 5 , wherein the second assembly guide is disposed on a side surface of the housing opposite the first assembly guide.

7 . The housing assembly according to claim 1 ,

wherein each of a second assembly guide, a third assembly guide and a fourth assembly guide is arranged on another side surface of the housing lying laterally with respect to the plug-in side, and

wherein each of the assembly guides is configured for engaging in matching plug-in slot guides of the carrier.

8 . The housing assembly according to claim 1 ,

wherein an electrical plug is arranged in the plug-in side of the housing, and

wherein the electrical plug is in electrical contact with a counter-plug in the carrier.

9 . The housing assembly according to claim 1 ,

wherein the housing has a base side arranged opposite the plug-in side, and

wherein the base side has at least two attachment points configured for being fastened to the carrier by screwing.

10 . The housing assembly according to claim 1 ,

wherein the plug-in side comprises at least one external fine guiding element provided to engage with a first fine positioning element arranged on the carrier, and

wherein the plug-in side of the housing is even more precisely placeable in the plugged-in position on the carrier by the engagement.

11 . The housing assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the housing assembly is a contactor housing assembly comprising a contactor housing that houses a contactor.

12 . A method for assembling the housing assembly according to claim 1 , the method comprising:

bringing the housing into a pre-insertion position in which the first assembly guide begins to engage the first plug-in slot guide; and

subsequently pushing the housing into the plugged-in position along an insertion direction guided by inter-engaging the first assembly guide and the first plug-in slot guide.

13 . The method of claim 12 , wherein the insertion direction is oriented in a direction of gravity.

14 . The housing assembly according to claim 1 ,

wherein the housing has a first housing component and a second housing component, the second housing component having a first guide groove,

wherein the first housing component has a first complementary element, the first complementary element and the first guide groove being designed such that the housing components are connectable to form the housing by sliding one inside the other along a guide direction.

15 . The housing assembly according to claim 14 , wherein the connection is a force-locking connection in a direction perpendicular to the guide direction.

16 . The housing assembly according to claim 15 , wherein the force-locking connection is supported by a shape of the first guide groove and a complementary shape of the first complementary element.

17 . The housing assembly according to claim 14 , further comprising a second guide groove and a second complementary element, the second complementary element being slidable into the second guide groove.

18 . The housing assembly according to claim 14 , further comprising a securing means effecting a fixed connection of the first and second housing components in the guide direction.

19 . The housing assembly according to claim 18 , wherein the securing means comprises two or more securing elements.

20 . The housing assembly according to claim 19 , wherein the securing elements comprise at least one hollow sleeve disposed in aligned holes in the first and second housing components.

21 . The housing assembly according to claim 14 , wherein, when the first and second housing components are assembled, the housing comprises at least one latch by which the first and second housing components are latched together.

22 . The housing assembly according to claim 21 , wherein the at least one latch is arranged on a side of the housing opposite the first guide groove.
