A power docking port system includes a charging probe having a substantially tetrahedral shape with multiple sides and a base portion, each of the multiple sides having a surface. A first set of contacts is embedded into the charging probe and each of the contacts extends radially outwardly from the base portion disposed at a predetermined angle from the others. A second set of contacts are individually mounted onto a different one of the multiple sides so as to conform with its surface. A port is adapted for use in current charging of electronic vehicles wherein the port is constructed to mate with the charging probe and the port includes a mating contact for each of the contacts on the charging probe. The port further includes an interface connector located at an output end of the port for electrically coupling with external power lines and other circuits.
