1. An electrical connection box for connection to a selected one of a plurality of external circuits, said external circuits including a plurality of common external circuit elements that are substantially identical for all of said external circuits and a plurality of special external circuit elements that are not common for all of said external circuits, such that said external circuits achieve a plurality of different purposes, said electrical connection box having an internal circuitry, wherein:

  • the internal circuitry is divided into a common circuitry common for all purposes and connectable to the common external circuit elements and a special circuitry which is not common for all purposes and connectable to the special external circuit elements of the selected external circuit, anda conductive layer on which the common circuitry is formed and another conductive layer on which the special circuitry is formed, said conductive layers being arranged one over the other at different levels in the electrical connection box, the conductive layer of the common circuitry being formed by flat busbars and having tabs which extend into connector receptacles so as to form terminals for the connection of the common circuitry with external circuitry, the special circuitry being formed by longitudinal busbars, cramping terminal cramped to the longitudinal busbars for extending therefrom into connection with the special external circuit elements.
