## Detailed Explanation

### Connector Types

| Type | Underwater Mating | Dry Mating |
|——|——————-|————|
| Wet Mate | YES | YES |
| Dry Mate | NO | YES |

### Wet Mate Features

– Oil-filled compensation system
– Special contact design for wet environment
– Pressure-equalized housing
– Corrosion-resistant materials
– Visual mating indicators

### Wet Mate Procedure

1. Inspect connectors (debris, damage)
2. Align connector halves (use guides)
3. Push together firmly (steady pressure)
4. Rotate coupling if threaded (hand-tight)
5. Verify mating (visual/tactile)
