Insulated cable

Use
Cables are a very important part of every system you make. They are the things that connect everything you make, allowing power to flow from your generators to your lamps and other consumers. The safest way to do this is by using an insulated cable, as this way you cannot receive any electrical shocks.

This cable has a rather low resistance, which means that it won't absorb much of the power that flows from the generators to the consumers. This allows you to use insulated cables in pretty long connections without losing a lot of your original power.

Connecting cables


Cables can only connect to blocks that are directly next to them but not to blocks that are diagonally to them. If any electrical block (cable, consumer, generator ...) is then placed next to the cable, it will automatically connect to that block.

Be aware that some blocks can only connect to cables from a certain side, lamps for example can only be connected to a cable from their bottom.
