Zusammenfassung:A system includes: an electrical connector that includes: an electrically insulating housing that defines an interior region; a conductive shell on the insulating housing; and an electrical conductor in the interior region. The system also includes a thermal sensing apparatus that includes: a temperature sensor; and a temperature display visible from an exterior of the electrical connector. The temperature display is configured to provide a persistent indication of a maximum temperature measured by the temperature sensor after the temperature measured by the temperature sensor has decreased relative to the maximum.
