Description: This mods adds some changes to how cable networks work and makes working with Electricity slightly more complicated. You may want to think about how you lay your cables from now on. Oh, you may also want a way to turn off the power.. you'll see what I mean.

Oh you want to know more? Well alright..

Cables are now less efficient, the larger the network the less efficient the network as a whole is. This inefficiency is converted into heat through the cables.

Additionally, cutting live wires can have various outcomes depending on how much power is available to the network. Ranging from just a small spark and a thrown wirecutter all the way up to lethal damage to your suit or body. I highly recommend cutting power to a cable network before removing cables. There is no change to adding cables and there is no change to adding and removing machines to a network

Lastly, you will want to manage the power generation capability of your power networks as excessive power production will cause strain on connected generators and will eventually cause damage and, if neglected for too long, start fires in your power plants. To prevent damage to generators, excess power can be redirected to other components such as electric heaters to turn the excess power into heat rather than damage to your generators.
