circuito de paso

Spanish to English Tech/Engineering Energy / Power Generation Electrical installation specification, Mexico
Los registros eléctricos subterráneos se deben localizar fuera de áreas clasificadas. Sin embargo, cuando no se pueda evitar el área clasificada y se requiera de cajas que contengan únicamente circuitos de paso (no derivaciones y no empalmes) se deben utilizar cajas de paso visibles de aluminio que contiene no más de 0,4 por ciento de cobre, adecuadas para la clasificación de área correspondiente.

Given the source says "no derivaciones" immediately after "circuitos de paso", it might not be "bypass" (which is the usual equivalent for "de paso").
I have found that "caja de paso" = pullbox.

direct-wire

The Text: no derivaciones (by-pass) y no empalmes (splices)
'paso' usually means supply line, as in 'agua de paso'

'Registro' I take to mean 'meter'. The wiring goes into the meter and the supply comes out of the other side.
