Methode offers PowerBud® contact technologies for high-current power connectors that address demanding requirements. These contact systems outperform all others in the market, bringing customers superior electrical performance with low resistance and low voltage drop, which results in lower temperature rise. The contact's low normal force results in lower insertion forces and higher cycle life. Our RK Series contact system is available for less demanding applications.

XP3 Custom Power Connector
Challenged with creating a low-loss transmission line interconnect, Methode developed a custom solution that distributes power from multiple sources to a matrix of loads, reducing issues such as lost efficiency and cooling due to the accumulation of power in transmission lines.
Military High-Current Connector
Featuring two contacts embedded into a common conductor, this unique connector design is capable of carrying 800A peak current continuously through its use of bus bar and high-current capacity braid technologies.
Multiple kidney-shaped beams lower the insertion force of the XP3 Custom Power Connector to one-fourth of typical industry power connectors.
High-Voltage Medical Connector
Methode developed a high-voltage, blind-mate, panel-mount connector with three contacts that delivered enough current to power the customer's thirteen load connections.
