An interconnect device includes a body portion (32) with conductors (14) passing through the body portion. An energy harvesting device (12), a power controller device(24) and a rechargeable DC power source (26) are configured such that the power controller device includes instructions programmed thereon for controlling the flow of power between the energy harvesting device, the DC power source, and a microcontroller (22). Sensor devices (16,18,20) are in electrical communication with the microcontroller. The sensors are arranged to detect parameters associated with the interconnect device and communicate the parameters to the microcontroller. An output device (28) communicates data from the microcontroller associated with the at least one sensor.
