Spanish term

paso de muros

Spanish to English Tech/Engineering Electronics / Elect Eng
Again, it is from a document from a industrial-grade fan company in Mexico. This is from one of the fan instruction manuals, and the text is talking about the connections for the control panel and frequency converter.

"Recuerde hacer los recorridos necesarios dentro de tuberías, charolas, *pasos de muros,* etc. antes de realizar la conexión final al variador de frecuencia."

Thanks for your help!

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

bushings

These are types of conduits which come as flexible PVC, then specifically for passing through a wall it is a harder rigid PVC known as a bushing.
