Summary:Included are systems, apparatuses, and methods for operation of an electronic inflow control device without electrical connections. An example of a well system comprises an electric control line and an electronic inflow control device. The electric control line comprises at least one primary winding. The electronic inflow control device comprises a secondary winding inductively coupled to the primary winding; a flow regulator in fluidic communication with an inlet of the electronic inflow control device and adjustable to provide a flow resistance to a fluid flowing through the electronic inflow control device and a controller configured to actuate the flow regulator to change the flow resistance through the electronic inflow control device.
