ABSTRACT:
Methods and apparatuses are used for AC and DC electric power systems. The apparatus according to one embodiment is a pin system (180A) for AC and DC electric power systems which comprises a female pin (418), the female pin (418) comprising a resistive region (405), the resistive region (405) forming a first portion of an inner surface of the female pin (418), and a conductive region (406), the conductive region (406) forming a second portion of the inner surface of the female pin (418), the conductive region (406) contacting the resistive region (405), the conductive region (406) being located further than the resistive region (405) from an open end of the female pin (418); and a male pin (415) adapted to be inserted in the female pin (418) along the inner surface of the female pin (418), the male pin (415) being made of a conductive material.
