Large HV switch

Description
IMPORTANT NOTE: Due to game scripting limitations, maximal power capacity is limited to 19MW! I figured it out last day of making this project. Maybe, someday in the future we will be able to change this limitation.

With the arrival of new power lines, I introduce you a new high voltage switch which can have 9 HV power connections. All of these connections have spacing for brand new 18MW lines.

This 3x3 switch is of course a little more expensive than the vanilla version, but it saves place and planning.

I used βlu∃_βrO's chainlink fence to eyecandy this item - Link here > https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2022194777

@ dan Just checked it on version 0.9.0.13; attempting to use the same trick on electrical switches does work on the switch itself, but it also causes any nearby substations to intermittently lose power. The same thing would probably happen if a power station was nearby.

I can also confirm that Peter's confirmation (via @ MarshallSK ) is not accurate, at least as of this game version. Hooking up, for example, 3 importing foreign power connections and 3 exporting foreign output connections to a single 6x switch transfers only 18 MW of power.

i just saw a mod wher they gave 54MW high transformers mabey look in to it because i would love to use your mod

people have been able to create high-capacity voltage transformers/substations lately and it would absolutely be nice to see this mod attempt that aswell

question, you say game limitations but Peter(MainDev) confirmed that the vanilla 6x swich can take 18x3 MW so can you revisit this and/or contact the developers. This is a very nice mod and idea

Uhh thats cool, thank you!

sigh, I just used these to create the backbone for my triple-redundant power plants array for my cosmonaut playthrough, only to realize the backbone can only be 19MW due to game limitations!! aaaaargh... any idea if this will be updated in the future to allow for higher-MW backbone connections? How do people use their Nuclear plants? sigh... great mod though, thanks for sharing! :D

Can you make more with transformers

Okay

Send a link then, I am curious :D

Of course, thanks!
