A through-the-partition connector particularly for lead-acid cells or batteries is disclosed in which a stud insert of relatively low electrical resistivity is embedded within a deformable lead shroud post which is tightly seated within the partition. In one aspect, the lead shroud and the partition seat are configured with inclined ramp portions, e.g., frustroconical in shape, and an interference fit is formed therebetween for an improved seal. In another aspect, the stud has a lower leg or other extension projecting therefrom, and which is fully encased by the lead shroud, particularly for increasing the current carrying capability of the connector. |
