Housing for an electrical pass-through

A electrical pass-through comprising:

• a housing with a cable opening that extends therethrough and defines a cable axis, the cable opening having a non-circular cross-sectional shape when viewed perpendicularly relative to the cable axis, the housing having a cap lock;
• and
• a cap assembly including a cap portion and a claw portion;
• the cap portion including a cap base with a cap opening that extends therethrough and that the cable axis extends through,
• a cap catch, and
• a plurality of lock surfaces that are angled relative to the cable axis such that as the distance from the claw portion increases, the distance between the lock surface and the cable axis decreases, and
• the claw portion including a claw body with a claw opening that the cable axis extends through, and
• fingers that extend from the claw body towards the cap portion;
• the cap portion movable relative to the claw portion from an initial position wherein the cap portion is separate from the claw portion, to a locked position wherein each of the fingers engages one of the lock surfaces and is deflected toward the cable axis wherein the cap lock engages the cap catch to retain the cap portion in position relative to the housing.

An electrical pass-through comprising:

• an electrical cable that defines a cable axis, the cable having an outer radius;
• a housing with an inner wall that defines a cable opening that extends therethrough and that the cable axis extends through, the cable opening having a non-circular cross-sectional shape when viewed perpendicularly relative to the cable axis, the distance between the cable axis and different locations on the inner wall including a longer distance that is greater than the cable radius and a shorter distance that is less than the cable radius;
• and
• a cap assembly including a cap portion and a claw portion;
• the cap portion including a cap base with a cap opening that extends therethrough and that the cable axis extends through,
• a cap catch, and
• a plurality of lock surfaces that are angled relative to the cable axis such that as the distance from the claw portion increases, the distance between the lock surface and the cable axis decreases, and
• the claw portion including a claw body with a claw opening that the cable axis extends through, and
• fingers that extend from the claw body towards the cap portion;
• the cap portion movable relative to the claw portion from an initial position wherein the cap portion is separate from the claw portion, to a locked position wherein each of the fingers engages one of the lock surfaces and is deflected toward the cable axis wherein a cap lock on the housing engages the cap catch to retain the cap portion in position relative to the housing.
