A Power Switch is a small player built utility structures that is similar to a Power Pole, connecting Power Lines together to power nearby facilities, but it can be turned off to stop the power transfer.
Construction
It is built with a Hammer and costs Basic Materials. It can be built anywhere on land except on Roads, rocks, or Bridges. It can be connected with up to 4 Power Lines. Two poles can be linked with a power line if they are less than 25m apart. A Power line cannot have a chain of more than 20 poles (power drops to zero past that), meaning a power line cannot travel longer than 500 meters.
