Cables

Cables transfer energy across blocks. For an explanation of how cables interact with power, read general information about energy.

Name	Tier	Input & Output Rate (Energy per Tick)1)	Buffer (Energy)2)
Tin Cable	Low	32	128
Copper Cable and Insulated Copper Cable	Medium	128	512
Gold Cable and Insulated Gold Cable	High	512	2K
HV Cable and Insulated HV Cable	Extreme	2K	8.1K

Superconductor Cable	Infinite	5.36M3)	2.1G

• Copper, Gold, and HV cables can be insulated using Rubber. Uninsulated cables can cause damaging shocks (and use energy in the process)!
• There is no insulated version of the GlassFiber Cable because this cable will not shock you.
• There is no insulated version of the Tin Cable, but it will still shock you.
• Cables can be dismantled instantly by shift-right-clicking with the Wrench
