A system includes a plurality of electro-mechanical connectors disposed on a first electrical system. The plurality of electro-mechanical connectors includes at least a ground connector, an output power connector, a return power connector, and at least one signal connector. A power supply line in the first electrical system is connected through a current-limiting element to the output power connector. The system further includes a circuit detecting a loopback signal received from a second electrical system via the at least one signal connector indicating presence of a power connection between the first electrical system and the second electrical system, and a switch activable in response to a detected loopback signal to bypass the current-limiting element to pass a full unrestrained current and voltage on the power supply line to the output power connector.

The thermal time of flight signal guard overcomes the leakage crosstalk problem encountered in prior art systems by eliminating the leakage currents in the flow transducer before they reach the temperature sensors. This is accomplished by the installation of a conductive strip into the fluid flow path, interposed between the temperature sensors and the heat source. The conductive strip intercepts any errant leakage currents that are generated by the heat source and carried by moisture which accumulates on the walls of the fluid flow path to the temperature sensor. The signals that pass through the fluid flow conduit past the conductive strip to the temperature sensors are the thermal tracer signals. Therefore, the temperature sensors operate in a leakage current free environment and the signals produced by the temperature sensors are devoid of leakage current noise.
