== Power Grid ==

To most people they're just wires that burn the shit out of you when you try to cut them without wearing insulated gloves. But really, the power grid is the electrical backbone of the station, powering everything from the emitters containing the singularity to the APC that controls the bathrooms in the locker room that you never go to. Also, it burns the shit out of you if you try to cut it without wearing insulated gloves.

== SMES ==

[[File:SMES_Charging.gif]]

A Superconducting Magnetic Energy Storage (SMES) Cell is the spess version of a giant rechargeable battery. The standard set-up for an SMES involves:

1. a wiring input from a power source, such as Solars or the Singularity Engine, or from the power grid itself, in the case of the Backups SMESs, and

2. a wiring output to the local power grid, or to a closed system like the AI or mining stations

=== SMES Properties ===

SMES have a modifiable storage capacity, dependent on the [[power cell]]s installed in the SMES upon fabrication. All SMESs present at the beginning of a typical shift have a default capacity of 3.33 MJ.

SMES input (charging) and output levels can be modified using [[capacitor]]s. All SMESs present at the beginning of a typical shift have a basic capacitor with default i/o levels of 200 kW.

SMESs will only output when the level of charge is above the output level specified on the SMES settings panel.

== [[APC|APCs]] ==

[[File:APC2.gif]]

APCs, or Automated Power Controllers, are found on the walls of the room they're powering or, more likely, in maintenance just outside the room. They can be used to toggle the room's equipment, lighting and environmental (a.k.a. ventilation) systems on and off.
