1. A Printed Circuit Board, PCB, comprising one or more through-holes for receiving one or more terminals, wherein the one or more through-holes penetrates one or more conductive layers of the PCB and the one or more through-holes has a partially open side wall,wherein the side wall is at least partially plated to electrically interconnect said one or more conductive layers and wherein the side wall is open along at least a part of a length of the one or more through holes perpendicular to a radius of the one or more through-holes for allowing the terminal to protrude through the open side wall when received by the one or more through-holes, such that a position of the terminal is adjustable along the length of the open side wall, andwherein the PCB comprises one or more grooves located in between the one or more through-holes on an edge of the PCB adapted to guide the one or more terminals of another PCB positioned next to the PCB, in order to position a terminal of the another PCB in relation to the PCB.
