These plates come together to form a protective surface that appears like welding gear - thick gloves, Kevlar sleeves, a heavy apron, and of course, an OSHA-compliant helmet and mask. The heavy workboots and thick workpants are meant to emulate Diamond as they were, allowing Diamond to pass more easily at their job.
The plates hook into Diamond's frame to distribute their weight, hence why you need to be an android or cyborg to wear them - you need hardpoints to mount the plates to. They also require some form of power so as to activate Defense Curl, Vanguard, and Thorns, as the Thorns is narratively an electro-thaumic discharge from Diamond's onboard reactor, Vanguard is from energized sensor-circuits just under the skin, and Defense Curl is overcharging the whole system to magnetize it to the body.
