A safety connect system and a method for assuring fail safe operation of an energy sourcing system are disclosed. The energy sourcing system is used to recharge batteries in electric vehicles (EVs). The energy sourcing system includes an electrical energy source connected to an enclosure. The enclosure sources energy from said electrical energy source and supplies to an energy consuming device. The enclosure detects a change in position of the enclosure when it goes above a preset threshold or when there is a malfunction. The enclosure sends a safety signal to the electrical energy source when no malfunction or change in position is detected. When the enclosure does not send the safety signal, the electrical energy source does not allow the energy to flow to the enclosure.
