Powering the Future: The Role of Electrical Architecture in the Shift to Electrification

When working on high-voltage DC power transmission projects, most engineers focus on sizing batteries and cables correctly. However, the surprising reality is that connectors often represent the key link in the system.

Why? At the core of every connector lies its contact technology, which consists of pin and socket. While their surfaces appear smooth to the naked eye, they are full of microscopic irregularities. When transmitting DC power, current flows through these uneven touch points, creating what is known as constriction current.
