A power delivery system may include a collector device that can selectively couple a vehicle with a delivery device coupled with an off-board power source. The collector device may include conductive contacts that each can engage the delivery device. The contacts may switch modes of operation to change a power transfer capability of the collector device. The contacts may separately conduct a positive potential, conduct a negative potential, conduct a communication signal, and provide a connection to a ground reference in a first mode of operation of the modes of operation. The contacts may separately conduct the positive potential, conduct an additional amount of the positive potential, conduct the negative potential, and conduct an additional amount of the negative potential in a second mode of operation of the modes of operation.
