The Flexible Electrical Cable is a structure piece used to route electrical current from generators and power sources to consumer structures like refrigerators, chargers, and automated devices. Unlike rigid electrical conduits, the flexible variant can snake around obstacles and follow terrain without precise grid alignment.
Admins spawn it with its item ID or GFI code. It does not stack, so each cable is a single placement; however, you can chain multiple cables together to cover longer distances. Blueprint form does not exist for this item.
