Cable Tiers

ELN comes with different voltage tiers which are also color coded.

TierVoltageAmperePowerSerial ResistanceImage
Low Voltage50V20A1kW25mΩ
Medium Voltage200V10A2kW100mΩ
High Voltage800V6.25A5kW200mΩ

Each tier has their corresponding relays, switches and fuses.

Integrity

Cables which carry more load than designed heat up and at ~180°C start to break. Switches and relays however dont have a internal temperature and only get destroyed when supplied to much voltage.

Resistance

As electricity travels over long distances, some voltage is lost due to resistance in the cables. To minimize these losses, the voltage can be increased using a transformer before transmission.

Config

The voltage, ampere and power for each tier can be changed with a multiplier in the config.

By default electrical componens just break and drop, however for someone seeking a challange it can also be set to explode and destroy blocks upon breaking.
