A pin assembly includes a plurality of pins and a plurality of seals. The plurality of seals are separate from one another and are each formed from an elastically deformable material. The seals are each disposed on one of the pins and are each retained on the one of the pins by interaction of the elastically deformable material with the one of the pins.

Pass through plates comprise a body with an opening between opposed first and second surfaces for accommodating the passage of electrical elements. One or more upper retaining elements project outwardly from the body and are positioned adjacent a body top portion. One or more lower retaining elements project from the body and are positioned adjacent a body bottom portion. The upper and lower retaining elements are each configured to both engage respective top and bottom sections of an opening in an external object, and to engage a backside surface of the external object when installed within the opening to retain the pass through plate for attachment with the external object. The upper and lower retaining elements are positioned to enable movement of the pass through plate from an upward position in the opening to a downward position in the opening for fixed attachment with the external object.

Electrical element pass through plate constructions

Pass through plates have a body with an opposed first surface and second surface and an attachment member extending therethrough. The attachment member includes a wall structure configured to accommodate placement of an electrical conductor therein. The attachment member may include a recessed section configured to accommodate an outer section of the electrical conductor to prevent rotational movement of the electrical conductor therein. A retaining element is configured to contact the electrical conductor and retain axial placement of the electrical conductor within the attachment member when the electrical conductor is installed in the wall structure. The retaining element may comprise one or more latch elements extending along the attachment member wall and configured to move radially. The retaining element may be configured to contact a portion of the electrical conductor once installed in the attachment member. The attachment element and retaining element are integral with the pass through plate body.
