Make this item using the crafting or processing recipes below.
Connect to any of the six faces of generators, powered machines or eligible batteries. Electricity flows automatically; it has no wrench direction setting. Bank member cells are disconnected while claimed, so use the bank controller. See Electricity and batteries and Pipes.
Opening its controls shows a matching illustration and name in the left panel. See Machine interfaces.
For boiler generation, connect this cable to the Alternator, not the boiler’s mechanical shaft. The boiler needs a directly adjacent, correctly aligned alternator to generate electricity. See the illustrated setup.
