All the professional electret lavalier mics are low-voltage power
between the head and the barrel. Not that they all could be wired for
PIP--some are built with positive and some with negative polarity.
Wireless transmitters usually have a multi-pin connector for the mic
so different schemes can be accommodated. PIP is a Sony
standardization of electret capsule powering that, thankfully, other
manufacturers have emulated.
