Power Relay takes in sources of energy and distribute them either over a long range or to improve cable management over a short range by using multiple of these relays.

Inputs and Outputs

  • The lower blue circle (Input2) accepts power. Connect it to generators.
  • The upper blue circle (Input1) can be wired to ON/OFF signal (such as Iron Lever or Tiny Wall Button). If off, the power won't be transferred.
  • Red circle (Output) outputs power. Connect it to buildings that require power.

The total output will be distributed as needed to any devices connected to the relay.

Example

Here you can see Alternator Generator being wired to Basic Battery and 3 machines (from left to right: Sifter, Rock Breaker and Basic Computer).
