Abstract
An electrical pin and sleeve device is disclosed. The pin and sleeve device incorporating one or more features to facilitate easier assembly and use. For example, the pin and sleeve device may include one or more indicators (e.g., LEDs) mounted on a printed circuit board (PCB) for providing power supply indication, and/or status or fault notification. Additionally, and/or alternatively, the PCB may be adapted and configured to be inserted into one or more slots formed in the contact carrier and/or the body member of the device. Additionally, and/or alternatively, the PCB may receive electrical power via clips coupled to electrical wires or leads, the clips electrically contacting the pins and/or sleeves of the device.
