Abstract:
1. An electrical feed through junction block comprising: a mountable housing comprising a front and a back, said back comprising a substantially flat mounting surface; a first conductive terminal extending from said front of said housing, a second conductive terminal extending from said back of said housing, wherein the configuration of said housing is such that when said second conductive terminal is inserted through an aperture in a barrier, said mounting surface engages said barrier and said first conductive terminal and said second conductive terminal are on opposite sides of said barrier; and an overcurrent protection device located within said housing, wherein said overcurrent protection device provides a conductive path between said first conductive terminal and said second conductive terminal when in a non-overcurrent operating condition, wherein said overcurrent protection device comprises a circuit breaker having a bimetallic element extending between said first conductive terminal and said second conductive terminal.
