Heavi-Watt Conductive Joint Plate

Heavi-Watt Conductive Joint Plate is a utility building used to route Heavi-Watt Conductive Wire through walls and other enclosed spaces without allowing gas or liquid to leak through. It functions as a specialized pass-through for high-capacity power lines, letting the wire continue across a barrier while still preserving the room boundary.

Unlike a solid wall tile, the plate has connection points on both sides, and it can also be rotated into a vertical orientation. This makes it flexible for layouts where power needs to cross a wall, floor, or other structural divide. The tile portion itself is not connected to power, so it can be crossed by a regular Wire, effectively serving as a bridge. Because it can be used as part of a floor or wall that encloses a room, it is often placed where a pass-through is needed without opening the structure to fluids or gases.

A few practical points matter when using it:

• It does not provide insulation. Being made of metal, it conducts heat more quickly instead of blocking it.
• If thermal isolation is important, multiple joint plates should be separated by vacuum and connected through intermediate wiring segments.
• Building it requires the same Electrical Engineering skill as Heavi-Watt Conductive Wire.
• It can be used in layouts similar to a Wire Bridge or Conductive Wire Bridge, but for Heavi-Watt Conductive Wire specifically.
• Its decor value is slightly higher than the standard Heavi-Watt Joint Plate, and using gold or niobium increases that further.

Heavi-Watt Conductive Joint Plate is therefore best used as a structural power pass-through when the colony needs to carry heavy power through a sealed barrier. It is useful for keeping rooms airtight or liquid-tight while still maintaining a continuous high-capacity electrical network.
