Are HYSF connectors “Hot Swappable” (Live Mating)?

“Wet-mate” does not mean “Live-mate”.

• Arcing: Water is conductive. Plugging in a live connector (e.g., 48V or 300V) creates a momentary arc that pits the contact surfaces.
• Protocol: Always power down the system (turn off the PSU or ROV output) before connecting or disconnecting the cables.
• Exceptions: While some specialized inductive couplers exist for live mating, our standard pin-and-socket connectors require a power-off protocol for safety.
