A bulkhead connector assembly for supporting a bus bar as it passes through a bulkhead including a rectangular portion having a substantially rectangular cross section and including a rectangular passageway extending therethrough and a circular portion having a substantially circular cross section and including a circular passageway extending therethrough and in communication with the rectangular passageway of the rectangular portion. A mounting flange which is integral with the rectangular and circular portions is disposed intermediate of the rectangular and circular portions for mounting the assembly to a bulkhead. The circular passageway of the circular portion has a plurality of shoulders within the circular passageway with the shoulders defining a rectangular passage within the circular passageway which substantially corresponds to the rectangular passageway of the rectangular portion for mounting and supporting a bus bar as it passes through a bulkhead.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION AND ADVANTAGES The subject invention is directed toward a bulkhead connector assembly for supporting a bus bar as it passes through a bulkhead.
The bulkhead connector assembly includes a rectangular portion having a substantially rectangular cross section and including a rectangular passageway extending therethrough.
The assembly further includes a circular portion having a substantially circular cross section and including a circular passageway extending therethrough and in communication with the rectangular passageway of the rectangular portion.
A mounting flange which is integral with the rectangular and circular portions is disposed intermediate of the rectangular and circular portions for mounting the assembly to the bulkhead.
The assembly is characterized by the circular passageway of the circular portion having a plurality of shoulders within the circular passageway with the shoulders defining a rectangular passage within the circular passageway which substantially corresponds to the rectangular passageway of the rectangular portion for mounting and supporting the bus bar as it passes through the bulkhead.
Accordingly, the subject invention provides a bulkhead connector assembly for efficiently and effectively mounting and supporting a bus bar as it passes through a bulkhead.
Further, the assembly is adapted for sealing the cabinet from air leaks which prevents moisture and dirt from entering the cabinet and prevents leakage past or shorting to adjacent connections and also guards against safety hazards when the terminals are live.
