Protection of unsealed electrical connectors

A monitoring system for monitoring a current draw through a plurality of conductor pins, comprising:

• a component;
• a sensor body created of a non-ferrous material connected to the component, including:
• a first insert member having a first plurality of conductor pins extending therefrom;
• a second insert member defining a sensor adapted to sense proximal presence of a fastener;
• a blind fastener engagement aperture created in the sensor body proximal to the second insert member and spaced from the sensor by a body wall of the non-ferrous material;
• an interface member having a second plurality of conductor pins extending therefrom, the interface member releasably connected to the component having individual ones of the first plurality of conductor pins connected to individual ones of the second plurality of conductor pins;
• and
• a fastener coupled to the interface member having an engagement end extending beyond the interface member and engaged within the fastener engagement aperture of the sensor body to releasably connect the interface member to the component, the sensor configured to sense a presence of the engagement end and create a fastener present signal indicating presence of the engagement end.
