MayaYT Posted August 29, 2012 Posted August 29, 2012 This is my setup, I made everything on my own without tutorials, so my setup could probably be more efficient but I am not concerned about that. Whenever I am standing in those three positions while my macerator/furnace machine is running I will constantly be damaged, even from 3-4 blocks away. First time this happened I insulated all the copper wire but it still happens, now I just dont take any damage. It's very distracting. I googled everywhere before posting this so hopefully its not to obvious Thanks in advance to whoever is awesome enough to help me out
JohnScarlet Posted August 29, 2012 Posted August 29, 2012 This happens to me every time I stand in front of transformers or gold cables, even when everything's insulated. Can't say if its a but or not, but I always thought it had something to do with large packets of energy traveling through a single wire.
theallboarder Posted August 29, 2012 Posted August 29, 2012 this happens i think because too much power is coming through maybe a power limiter? i dunno
MayaYT Posted August 29, 2012 Author Posted August 29, 2012 Is there a way for me to reduce it? It's only 4 basic solar panels worth of power, I thought that was very insignificant.
Viktor_Berg Posted August 29, 2012 Posted August 29, 2012 You really should have EVERYTHING insulated as much as possible. You are probably getting shocked by all that uninsulated wiring, at least in shot 3. I've played with IC2 for a LONG time, and have never been shocked by properly insulated wiring or transformers.
gavjenks Posted August 29, 2012 Posted August 29, 2012 Your thread title says youre getting electrocuted by insulated wires, yet your screenshots show half a dozen uninsulated wires... Is this really that confusing? Uninsulated wires, which you DO have, shock you. They will shock you from about 4 blocks away. Insulate absolutely everything. The only time you should ever not insulate something is maybe if it is like 40 blocks underground and you'll never ever visit it again, or if you want to build an electric fence.
