TL;DR: Inserters are powered from power pole that seems to be unconnected.
What: I'm sure there have been changes since these inserters and poles were placed but when in the area I noticed there was no wire connecting the subject two poles to the grid at this time yet the inserters are running.
Please see images below.
Expected: a visible wire connecting these poles to the grid and power statistics in the Electric Network info screen.

Re: Power on seemingly unpowered poles
Not a bug. Inserters are in range of substations.
Re: Power on seemingly unpowered poles
Instead of looking at the connections, hover over the inserter and see what power poles/substations are highlighted. It'll highlight any pole that's giving the inserter power.2B1 wrote: Tue Feb 02, 2021 5:42 pm TL;DR: Inserters are powered from power pole that seems to be unconnected.
