''Cables'' are the most useful Wiring mechanism introduced since... now... Redstone Wires, i guess. 

You can link ''Cables'' to anything in any angle, '''as long as the cable-sides keep touching each other'''. However, caution is advised, no one likes shunt faults.

All futurely introduced energy-generating machines will be capable of emitting electric current. They will only do this if not busy with something else, though.

If however, some sort of [[Generator]] is creating energy, without actually using it, it will start emitting electric current. This can be absorbed and transmitted via ''Cables''.

A ''cable'' can theoretically transmit current in any direction, '''but if you power one end of a long ''cable'', the power will always run to the other end''', you can be assured.

If you now have a [[generator]], connect it directly to an energy-using machine via ''cables'', the [[generator]] will power the machine. For example an [[Electric Furnace|Electric Furnace]].

Electric machines have only minimal storage, thus they cannot "charge up" or "save energy" for real. Some machines, however, will require some more energy to start running. This means that it will take a few seconds of laid electric current for the machine to start working again.

As well, not every [[generator]] will emit the same power of current. Even more, '''transporting energy via ''cables'' is not perfect and thus the emit'd power will become less and less potent, the further it travels'''.

A good aspect about ''cables'', however, is that you can SPLIT them. If a current finds more than one possible way to go, '''the energy will be split in half and distributed to both new ways equally.'''

We '''do not''', however, '''recommend trying to split up a ''cable'' into 3 lanes at once. Experience has shown ''cables'' will melt if you try to do so'''. You can, however, split one of the 2 ''cables'' a second time, resulting in a total of 3 lanes.

This way, you can possibly even power multiple machines with a single generator, HAYO!

Ltc: /* Adding IC2 content */ new section

You need some personal support, because of the wiki or maybe IC?

Then create a discussion topic and i will answer^^

== Tutorial Request ==

Post your request here^^

== Adding IC2 content ==

I'd like to help adding the new IC2 recipes. However, all the new pages don't allow me to edit.

Is there anything I can do to start working on those?
