Hi,
I want to use the electricity (power) as an input for the logics.
So I want to turn on a backup system when electricity production is below a certain percentage. But I do not get the electricity to show up as input for the calculators....
Any sugestions are apreciated!
Thank you a lot!
Best regards, Eru
Use the status of electricity as input for logics

Use the charge of an accumulator as input.

You can connect accumulators to the circuit network. Then you can turn on backup generators (and/or turn off sections of factory) when ever your accumulators drop too low.

Make you sure you use an SR-latch for that so you get a hysteresis. Otherwise everything will flicker on and off

For steam backup power specifically I don't use a power switch like in that example though. But just switch on the water pumps instead
