Current restrictive spring-loaded electrical connection device

A method for supplying current or voltage from a connector to a mating assembly of an electrical interface, the method comprising:

• providing a connector comprising a housing defining an interior, a pin housing or pin support region positioned within the interior of the housing and comprising a number of connector pins disposed therein and configured to be connected to a power supply, wherein each pin comprises a conductive outer cylinder configured to be connected to the power supply, a conductive inner cylinder located at least partially within the outer cylinder, a biasing member disposed within the inner cylinder, a conductive plunger slidably disposed within and engaged with the inner cylinder and the biasing member, and a non-conductive member disposed within the inner cylinder, the non-conductive member operable to restrict a current or voltage flowing through the connector pin along a path from the outer cylinder through the inner cylinder to the plunger;
• connecting the connector to the mating assembly of the electrical interface;
• and
• passing a current or voltage through the connector to the mating assembly of the electrical interface to generate an electron path.
