"through which" can not pass!

by Minhthien

I read the following in Howstuffworks


How MRI Works
(...)
Resistive magnets consist of many windings or coils of wire wrapped around a cylinder or bore through which an electric current is passed.
(...)
Everybody understands that a current must pass through the wires... not through the bore.

Do you think the sentence needs some remedy?
I appreciate your help.

Hi Minhthien,

This sentence is ok the way it is. No change needed. It is just a very formal way of saying that the elecrical current can not pass through the coils/bore.

The ASK DIANA section is still closed and will be closed for the next while. I am developing new materials and books that I would like to make available on the site, and then I will be re-opening the question area.

Have a great day Minhthien. :)- Diana
