Zusammenfassung:An approach for connecting electrical wiring between two chambers of varying temperatures is disclosed. One approach includes a first end of a wiring bundle comprising a first plurality of metal conductors; a second end of the wiring bundle comprising of equal number of metal conductors as the first end of the wiring bundle; the first end of the wiring bundle is separated by an air gap from the second end of the wiring bundle at a first temperature; and an insulator surrounding the wire bundle. Another approach includes the use of one or more SMA (shape-memory alloy) pins connecting the first end of the wiring bundle to the second end of the wiring bundle and that is separated by an air gap and a boundary plate.
