A fluid cooled feedthrough, for conducting electrical energy at high power levels through a wall of a pressure or vacuum vessel includes a mounting flange for mounting the feedthrough to a mating flange formed at a wall of the vessel. The mounting flange includes a seal for sealing the flange to the mating flange in a high pressure/vacuum sealing arrangement. An insulator tube is secured to the mounting flange in a high pressure/vacuum sealing arrangement. A conductor tube is secured to the insulator tube at a bonding region at an outer end thereof, and the conductor tube conducts electrical energy at high power levels and carries cooling fluid therethrough. The conductor tube defines at least one interior cooling fluid flow passage directly adjacent to the bonding region for conducting away the heat generated at the region incident to the passage of the electrical energy at high power levels. The insulator tube insulates the conductor tube from the mounting flange and from the wall.
