Retractable protection apparatus, and methods for use, provide protection for vertically oriented electrical connection pins from unintended bending, while further providing operability that allows protected pins to be uncovered to at least the extent necessary to make electrical connection with one or more connectors, and covered after coupling with the connectors is no longer required. In a further aspect, a locking mechanism is provided to prevent the retractable protection mechanism from retracting during shipping or similar handling. In a still further aspect, the retractable protection apparatus is segmented so that only selected portions of the vertically oriented electrical connection pins may be exposed for electrical access.
