Abstract
Abstract An insulator assembly for use in assisting the transfer of electrical power from one side to the other of a bulkhead or panel having a hole therein. The assembly uses a basic insulator device having a body portion as well as an upstanding feedthrough portion, with the upstanding portion being of a size so as to extend through a hole in the bulkhead or panel. The upstanding member is provided with a hole therethrough in which a current-carrying member is secured. Such current-carrying member forms the support for at least one connector means on the upstanding member, and at least one connector means on the body portion, thereby facilitating connection to a current-carrying member located on each side of the bulkhead.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim
152 words
A pre-assembled pass-through bushing unit for conducting electricity from one side to the other of an electrically conducting partition having an opening therein comprising: an insulator device having a main body and an integral feedthrough portion extending outwardly of said main body, said portion being sized to fit through the opening in the partition; means defining a bore extending completely through said main body and feedthrough portion; connector means positioned at each end of said bore and having openings aligned therewith; locking means on said insulator device adjacent opposite ends of said bore cooperating with said connector means to prevent rotation of said connector means with respect to each other and said device; a hollow conductor snugly received within said bore and said connector openings and having its opposite ends deformed over said connector means to form a rigid unitary assembly; and means for rigidly removably attaching said device to the partition.
