Here presented is a series of Direct Connect Unifying Electrical Interface (UEI) based Cartridges (DC-Cartridges) or (DC-Outlets) created to deliver DC electricity originating from a DC-Homegrid System or any independent DC source. They offer a pathway for higher level DC delivery into a building. The DC-Cartridge series is constructed to unmistakably and easily be distinguished between other power delivery outlet formats used in other AC or DC arrangements. This series of cartridges is designed to offer higher DC power level output to a connected device as used in a home, commercial, and industrial applications. This would facilitate the integration of alternative energy supplies in the DC format for heavy load equipment, essential for the DC infrastructure of the future. The DC Cartridges can deliver power levels similar in fashion to the existing AC connectivity. Following in the standard set by the AC infrastructure, various DC levels are offered. A DC cartridge is offered to differentiate between each power level. Nomenclatures such as DCL, DCM and DCH are introduced to distinguish the various cartridge types and levels to set each apart from the other in the DC-Cartridge UEI based family.
