Frequently Asked Questions

What do the numbers in the Electrical Generator spawn command mean?

In cheat gfi PrimalItemStructure_PowerGenerator 1 0 0, the code identifies the Electrical Generator, then the three numbers are quantity, quality, and blueprint flag (0 = item, 1 = blueprint). So it spawns one standard Electrical Generator.

How do I open the console to spawn the Electrical Generator?

On PC, press Tab to open the admin console, paste the command, and press Enter. On Xbox and PlayStation, open the pause menu and use the on-screen command bar. Then drop in the Electrical Generator spawn code from this page.

When was the Electrical Generator data last updated?

The Electrical Generator entry was last verified on GameServersCodex on June 28, 2026. We track the live ARK: ASA build, so the IDs and commands here reflect the current patch.

How do I spawn the Electrical Generator as a blueprint instead of a finished item?

Set the final argument to 1: cheat gfi PrimalItemStructure_PowerGenerator 1 0 1. The last number is the blueprint flag, where 0 gives the crafted item and 1 gives its blueprint (for craftable items; on items with no blueprint the flag is simply ignored).

How do I spawn multiple Electrical Generator at once?

Change the quantity argument, the first number after the code. For example cheat gfi PrimalItemStructure_PowerGenerator 25 0 0 spawns 25 of the Electrical Generator. Stacks respect the item's maximum stack size.

What is the Electrical Generator used for?

The Electrical Generator is a placeable structure that converts fuel into electrical power. Place it on a foundation or platform and connect it to devices via power lines and cables to run equipment like refrigerators, fabricators, and automated machinery.

How do I give the Electrical Generator to another player?

Look at the player and run cheat GiveItemToPlayer <PlayerID> 186 1 0 0, or stand near them and use cheat GiveItemNum 186 1 0 0 after selecting them in your admin tools. It's the quick way to hand out the Electrical Generator during events and giveaways.

What is the Electrical Generator class used for in mods or spawn tools?

Spawn managers, loot-table editors, and RCON macros reference the Electrical Generator by its class PrimalItemStructure_PowerGenerator_C or GFI PrimalItemStructure_PowerGenerator. Both uniquely identify it in ARK: Survival Ascended.

How do I enable admin commands to spawn the Electrical Generator?

In single-player, cheats are on by default. On a dedicated or hosted server, log in as admin first with enablecheats <AdminPassword>, then run the Electrical Generator spawn command. Without admin access the console rejects it.

Is the Electrical Generator spawn code on GameServersCodex accurate?

Yes. The Electrical Generator's class name, GFI code, item ID, and blueprint path are reproduced exactly from the live game data and re-checked each patch, so you can copy them straight into your console.

What items are related to the Electrical Generator?

See the Related section at the bottom of this page for items commonly used alongside the Electrical Generator, or open Browse Games to explore the full ARK: Survival Ascended database.

How do I spawn the Electrical Generator by its item ID?

Run cheat GiveItemNum 186 1 0 0 in the admin console. GiveItemNum spawns by numeric ID, which is precise for scripts and control panels. The trailing numbers are quantity, quality, and blueprint flag.

Why isn't my Electrical Generator spawn command working?

Check three things: admin access is enabled (enablecheats on servers), the code is typed exactly (PrimalItemStructure_PowerGenerator), and all three trailing numbers are present. Copying cheat gfi PrimalItemStructure_PowerGenerator 1 0 0 directly from this page avoids the most common mistakes.

How do I spawn a higher-quality Electrical Generator?

The second number is quality, where 0 is primitive and higher values roll toward ascendant. cheat gfi PrimalItemStructure_PowerGenerator 1 100 0 attempts a top tier Electrical Generator. Quality only affects items that support tiers; on others it's ignored.

What's the difference between GFI and GiveItemNum for the Electrical Generator?

Both spawn the Electrical Generator. gfi PrimalItemStructure_PowerGenerator matches the item by name and is quickest to type; GiveItemNum 186 uses the numeric ID and is precise for scripting. Same result, different lookup.

What is the class name for the Electrical Generator?

The class name for the Electrical Generator is PrimalItemStructure_PowerGenerator_C. Class names end in _C and identify the item's blueprint at runtime, which makes them useful for spawn tools, mods, and RCON macros.

What's the difference between the Electrical Generator GFI code and its blueprint path?

The GFI code PrimalItemStructure_PowerGenerator is a short name for quick spawning; the blueprint path "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/CoreBlueprints/Items/Structures/Pipes/PrimalItemStructure_PowerGenerator.PrimalItemStructure_PowerGenerator'" is the full engine reference used by GiveItem and spawn tools. Both point at the same Electrical Generator.

Is the Electrical Generator blueprint path case-sensitive?

Yes. "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/CoreBlueprints/Items/Structures/Pipes/PrimalItemStructure_PowerGenerator.PrimalItemStructure_PowerGenerator'" must be typed exactly, including capitalization and the wrapping quotes. Copy it from this page to avoid a typo that returns an empty spawn.

What is the blueprint path for the Electrical Generator?

The full blueprint path is "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/CoreBlueprints/Items/Structures/Pipes/PrimalItemStructure_PowerGenerator.PrimalItemStructure_PowerGenerator'". Paste it into GiveItem to spawn the exact item: cheat GiveItem "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/CoreBlueprints/Items/Structures/Pipes/PrimalItemStructure_PowerGenerator.PrimalItemStructure_PowerGenerator'" 1 0 0. Copy it exactly, because the path is case sensitive and must keep its wrapping quotes.

What is the admin command to spawn the Electrical Generator?

Open the admin console and run cheat gfi PrimalItemStructure_PowerGenerator 1 0 0. That gives you one Electrical Generator instantly. The three numbers after the code are quantity, quality, and blueprint flag. Raise the first to spawn a stack, or set the last to 1 to receive it as a blueprint instead of a finished item. Verified against the current ARK: ASA build as of June 28, 2026.

Can I spawn the Electrical Generator over RCON or on a dedicated server?

Yes. Send the same command through RCON or your control-panel console: cheat gfi PrimalItemStructure_PowerGenerator 1 0 0. If your tool already runs with admin context, drop the leading "cheat". It works the same on hosted, self-hosted, and RCON setups.

Where can I copy the Electrical Generator spawn command?

Does the Electrical Generator spawn command work in single-player and multiplayer?

Yes, the command is identical in both. Single-player has cheats enabled by default; multiplayer just requires an admin login first. The Electrical Generator then spawns the same way.

What's the numeric item ID of the Electrical Generator?

The numeric item ID for the Electrical Generator is 186. Use it with GiveItemNum, cheat GiveItemNum 186 1 0 0, to spawn by ID instead of by GFI name.

Can I get the Electrical Generator without spawning it?

How do I add the Electrical Generator to a starter kit or loadout?
