Abstract

An electromechanical system for a gas turbine engine includes a mechanical component located at a first side of a firewall of a gas turbine engine, and an electrical motor located at a second side of the firewall and configured to drive the mechanical component. The electrical motor mechanically connected to the mechanical component through a firewall opening in the firewall, the first side having a higher operating temperature than the second side. An electrical connection extends between the mechanical component and the electrical motor via the same firewall opening.
