HV Cable
From Industrial-Craft-Wiki
HV cables are the second highest tier of cables. They can tolerate High Voltage (512 EU/t) and Extreme Voltage (2048 EU/t).

HV-Cables have an extremely high distance-related energy loss. They can have 3 different levels of insulation. Considering that a shock from a poorly insulated HV cable will most likely prove fatal, it is recommended to insulate them well unless the cable is located in a completely unreachable area. Even then, insulation should be applied to reduce the massive energy losses.
Cable Efficiency[edit]
Cable type | EU/b | Energy loss |
---|---|---|
HV Uninsulated | 1 | 1 EU every block |
HV Insulated | 0.95 | 1 EU every 1.05 blocks |
HV 2x Insulated | 0.9 | 1 EU every 1.11 blocks |
HV 3x Insulated | 0.8 | 1 EU every 1.25 blocks |
