It is possible to wire the engines directly to the main power ring. A good spot to do this is to the port end of engineering, near the bolted airlock. Lift the floor tiles and run a wire from there out into the maintenance tunnel and link it to the wire running through there. This allows you to charge [[APC]]s directly if somebody disables the [[SMES]] in [[Engineering]].

'''The downside to this is that when anyone accidentally gets shocked by an electric grille or the doors are electrified, they will instantly kill anyone who do not have insulated gloves. Only do this on rare occasions, or never!'''

Another interesting point is that the APC in engineering will not charge from its own SMES unless this modification is made. Meaning that when the collectors are turned off, containment fails pretty quickly. With this quick modification, this gives you time to notice and fix the problem.
