About

Electronics is a resource item crafted at the Fabricator or obtained as loot from deep cave drops and certain supply crates. It's required for blueprints of advanced equipment like assault rifles, tek gear, and industrial tools.

Spawn it using either the numeric item ID 162 or the GFI code 162. Since Electronics does not stack beyond single quantities per slot, spawning larger amounts will consume inventory space proportionally.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I get the Electronics without spawning it?
Yes. The Electronics can also be obtained through normal ARK: Survival Ascended progression. Admins usually spawn it for speed when testing, running events, or outfitting players, which is what the commands on this page are for.
Is the Electronics blueprint path case-sensitive?
Yes. "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/CoreBlueprints/Resources/PrimalItemResource_Electronics.PrimalItemResource_Electronics'" must be typed exactly, including capitalization and the wrapping quotes. Copy it from this page to avoid a typo that returns an empty spawn.
Is the Electronics a DLC item or part of the base game?
The Electronics is part of the base ARK: Survival Ascended game, so no DLC or map pack is required to spawn or craft it.
Where can I copy the Electronics spawn command?
Use the copy buttons in the Spawn Commands and Blueprint Path sections near the top of this page. Each copies the full Electronics command to your clipboard in one click, ready to paste into the console.
What's the Electronics class name?
The class name for the Electronics is PrimalItemResource_Electronics_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.
Is the Electronics spawn code on GameServersCodex accurate?
Yes. The Electronics'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's the difference between the Electronics GFI code and its blueprint path?
The GFI code PrimalItemResource_Electronics is a short name for quick spawning; the blueprint path "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/CoreBlueprints/Resources/PrimalItemResource_Electronics.PrimalItemResource_Electronics'" is the full engine reference used by GiveItem and spawn tools. Both point at the same Electronics.
How do I spawn a higher-quality Electronics?
The second number is quality, where 0 is primitive and higher values roll toward ascendant. cheat gfi PrimalItemResource_Electronics 1 100 0 attempts a top tier Electronics. Quality only affects items that support tiers; on others it's ignored.
How do I give the Electronics to another player?
Look at the player and run cheat GiveItemToPlayer <PlayerID> 162 1 0 0, or stand near them and use cheat GiveItemNum 162 1 0 0 after selecting them in your admin tools. It's the quick way to hand out the Electronics during events and giveaways.
Does the Electronics 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 Electronics then spawns the same way.
How do I open the console to spawn the Electronics?
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 Electronics spawn code from this page.
When was the Electronics data last updated?
The Electronics 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.
What is the item ID for the Electronics?
The numeric item ID for the Electronics is 162. Use it with GiveItemNum, cheat GiveItemNum 162 1 0 0, to spawn by ID instead of by GFI name.
How do I enable admin commands to spawn the Electronics?
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 Electronics spawn command. Without admin access the console rejects it.
How do I use GiveItemNum for the Electronics?
Run cheat GiveItemNum 162 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.
What is the Electronics class used for in mods or spawn tools?
Spawn managers, loot-table editors, and RCON macros reference the Electronics by its class PrimalItemResource_Electronics_C or GFI PrimalItemResource_Electronics. Both uniquely identify it in ARK: Survival Ascended.
Why isn't my Electronics spawn command working?
Check three things: admin access is enabled (enablecheats on servers), the code is typed exactly (PrimalItemResource_Electronics), and all three trailing numbers are present. Copying cheat gfi PrimalItemResource_Electronics 1 0 0 directly from this page avoids the most common mistakes.
How do I spawn multiple Electronics at once?
Change the quantity argument, the first number after the code. For example cheat gfi PrimalItemResource_Electronics 25 0 0 spawns 25 of the Electronics. Stacks respect the item's maximum stack size.
How do I spawn the Electronics as a blueprint instead of a finished item?
Set the final argument to 1: cheat gfi PrimalItemResource_Electronics 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).
What is the GFI code for the Electronics?
The GFI code for the Electronics is PrimalItemResource_Electronics. GFI matches the item by its short blueprint name, so cheat gfi PrimalItemResource_Electronics 1 0 0 is the fastest way to spawn it without typing the full blueprint path.
What does the Electronics do in ARK: Survival Ascended?
A crafting resource used in high-level engram recipes, spawnable via its numeric item ID or GFI code.
What do the numbers in the Electronics spawn command mean?
In cheat gfi PrimalItemResource_Electronics 1 0 0, the code identifies the Electronics, then the three numbers are quantity, quality, and blueprint flag (0 = item, 1 = blueprint). So it spawns one standard Electronics.
What items are related to the Electronics?

How do I give myself the Electronics with a cheat command?
Open the admin console and run cheat gfi PrimalItemResource_Electronics 1 0 0. That gives you one Electronics 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.
What is the blueprint path for the Electronics?
The full blueprint path is "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/CoreBlueprints/Resources/PrimalItemResource_Electronics.PrimalItemResource_Electronics'". Paste it into GiveItem to spawn the exact item: cheat GiveItem "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/CoreBlueprints/Resources/PrimalItemResource_Electronics.PrimalItemResource_Electronics'" 1 0 0. Copy it exactly, because the path is case sensitive and must keep its wrapping quotes.
Which game is the Electronics from?

What is the Electronics used for?

How do I add the Electronics to a starter kit or loadout?
Include cheat gfi PrimalItemResource_Electronics 1 0 0 in your server's kit or spawn script, and set the quantity argument to hand out multiples. Pair it with other item commands from the Codex to build a full loadout.
Can I spawn the Electronics over RCON or on a dedicated server?
Yes. Send the same command through RCON or your control-panel console: cheat gfi PrimalItemResource_Electronics 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.
What's the difference between GFI and GiveItemNum for the Electronics?
Both spawn the Electronics. gfi PrimalItemResource_Electronics matches the item by name and is quickest to type; GiveItemNum 162 uses the numeric ID and is precise for scripting. Same result, different lookup.
