An encased electrical assembly includes a housing, a printed circuit board (PCB) and a cover. The housing includes a plurality of receiving apertures and the PCB includes a plurality of securing apertures shaped to receive a conductive fastener for securing the PCB to the housing. The PCB includes a plurality of conductive traces with two of the conductive traces having first ends electrically connected to a different one of two electrical contacts that are electrically accessible from outside the housing and second ends routed to different ones of the securing apertures. Each of the remaining conductive traces are routed between a different pair of the securing apertures such that when each of the securing apertures receives a secured conductive fastener, continuity is achieved between all of the conductive traces. The cover, when attached to the housing, obscures at least one of the conductive fasteners. However, the presence of the conductive fasteners can be determined by performing a continuity check between the two electrical contacts.
