An assembly of heat shrink tubes provides an interface across a barrier, such as a boundary of a chamber of a transformer housing. Each of the tubes has an axial aperture for receiving at least one respective electrical lead, such as ones extending from a transformer disposed in the chamber of the transformer housing to a connection outside the chamber. The interface preferably also includes a plurality of bushings, wherein each of the bushings is disposed in the axial aperture of a respective one of the heat shrink tubes. A support member is preferably included so that the heat shrink tubes are disposed adjacent a plurality of holes defined through the support member. An adhesive fluid tightly connects the heat shrink tubes to the support member. The chamber of the transformer housing includes a wall having an inner surface, against which an insulating liquid is disposed, and an outer surface, against which a gas is disposed. The heat shrink tubes can be mounted to this wall, such as by bolted attachment of the support member.
