The Straight Electrical Cable is a structure piece that carries power from generators and other electrical sources to machinery, lights, and defensive turrets. Unlike the Flexible Cable, it runs in fixed segments and does not bend around corners or obstacles.
Place cable runs in open or structured layouts where straight paths work. Combine with Flexible Cable, Conduits, and Ceilings to route power efficiently across your base. Power flows through connected cables as long as there is no gap and the source has adequate output.
Spawn it by GFI code or item ID 190. It does not stack, so each cable requires its own slot in inventory when gathering or admin-spawning multiple segments.
