1. An electrical pack comprising:
- power components; and
control components distributed in modules, wherein the power components are grouped together in at least one power module while the control components are grouped together in at least one control module that is separate from said at least one power module, and wherein the at least one control module includes a support plate made of a metal that is a good conductor of heat and that is associated with an electrically insulating component carrier plate carrying control components and electrical connection circuits, the component carrier plate being spaced apart from the support plate, the control module being protected by the support plate against heating coming from the at least one power module that is adjacent to the control module, wherein the at least one control module includes a perforated cover made of a metal that is a good conductor of heat having an edge surrounding the control component.
