Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a connector system that provides a sealed and grounded electrical connection for a component of a power management system, like those found in a battery-powered motor vehicle. The connector system includes a male connector assembly and an adaptor assembly. The adaptor assembly includes: (i) a capacitor assembly, (ii) a female terminal assembly, and (iii) a busbar assembly. An internal electrical connection state is defined when: (a) the female terminal assembly is electrically coupled to the capacitor assembly, (b) the capacitor assembly is electrically coupled to the busbar assembly, and (c) the busbar assembly is electrically coupled to an extent of the component of the power management system. In the internal electrical connection state, the electrical couplings are sealed from the external environment which increases the operating life, durability and reliability of the adaptor assembly, the connector system and the power management system component.
