The present invention is directed to an electrical wiring system that includes a connector device having connector contacts coupled to termination structures that couple a first AC power conductor and a second AC power conductor to corresponding contacts of the plurality of connector contacts. An optical wavelength-selective cross connect switch is described with a first stage of wavelength division multiplexing routers which support an optical input and a plurality of optical outputs, which are interconnected to a second stage of WDM routers having a plurality of optical inputs and an optical output. The method also includes modeling a region of the material with a mesh. The patch itself may have a hole that permits access to the contents of the pouch, or the closure means may include a cutting surface that tears a portion of the patch to permit access. A graded-index-type fiber optic cable is used as an optical transmission path extending between a laser beam generator and an optical emission section. Static logic circuits coupled to the dynamic stage have skewed rise and fall times to increase the propagation time of the domino circuit.
