High voltage bulkhead coupling

摘要

According to the invention a high voltage electrical coupling for attachment through a wall comprises a coupling body around a high voltage conductor and having a flange abutting one side of the wall and an external thread extending from the flange through the wall; and a nut with internal threads screwing onto the external thread and a face abutting the other side of the wall; wherein at least one of said body and nut is of dielectric material and the nut has air channels in its abutting face extending outwardly from its internal threads to its exterior for releasing air from the threads and face when the nut is screwed into abutment with the wall.
