The feed through bushing is designed to cover damaged brickwork, plasterboard, wood, or other materials where a cable enters or exits the interior of a building. The brick buster plate serves the same purpose for external use. Both components can be easily glued into position with silicone sealant. The bushing and brick buster help protect the cable from damage and, when installed with silicone, prevent water ingress into the wall hole. For plasterboard installations, sealant may not always be necessary as the grips can hold the feed through wall cap in place, though sealant is recommended for added security.
