A grounding device, comprising: a device body including: a male interface portion including an insulative outer layer that is formed around a bus, the bus having a first bore and a spade connector; a conductive housing including: a second bore that is axially aligned with the first bore, and an opening for a grounding terminal to receive a grounding wire; a pin assembly including: a non-conductive tip, and a conductive pin, wherein the pin assembly is configured to move axially within the first and second bores between a closed position that provides an electrical connection between the bus and the conductive housing and an open position that provides no electrical connection between the bus and the conductive housing; a voltage sensor, within the male interface portion and in communication with a controller, to sense whether voltage is present; and a motor configured to selectively drive the pin assembly between the open position and the closed position, based on a signal from the controller. a device body including: a male interface portion including an insulative outer layer that is formed around a bus, the bus having a first bore and a spade connector; a conductive housing including: a second bore that is axially aligned with the first bore, and an opening for a grounding terminal to receive a grounding wire; a pin assembly including: a non-conductive tip, and a conductive pin, wherein the pin assembly is configured to move axially within the first and second bores between a closed position that provides an electrical connection between the bus and the conductive housing and an open position that provides no electrical connection between the bus and the conductive housing; a voltage sensor, within the male interface portion and in communication with a controller, to sense whether voltage is present; and a motor configured to selectively drive the pin assembly between the open position and the closed position, based on a signal from the controller. a male interface portion including an insulative outer layer that is formed around a bus, the bus having a first bore and a spade connector; a conductive housing including: a second bore that is axially aligned with the first bore, and an opening for a grounding terminal to receive a grounding wire; a second bore that is axially aligned with the first bore, and an opening for a grounding terminal to receive a grounding wire; a pin assembly including: a non-conductive tip, and a conductive pin, wherein the pin assembly is configured to move axially within the first and second bores between a closed position that provides an electrical connection between the bus and the conductive housing and an open position that provides no electrical connection between the bus and the conductive housing; a non-conductive tip, and a conductive pin, wherein the pin assembly is configured to move axially within the first and second bores between a closed position that provides an electrical connection between the bus and the conductive housing and an open position that provides no electrical connection between the bus and the conductive housing; a voltage sensor, within the male interface portion and in communication with a controller, to sense whether voltage is present; and a motor configured to selectively drive the pin assembly between the open position and the closed position, based on a signal from the controller.
