Tired of working in the dark? Want to use the Welder to fix your rusty Konig chassis? Installing the Power Grid is the most important upgrade for your garage, but it's expensive. This guide covers the full installation process.
Go to the Hardware Store (Gilles) in town. You need to buy these specific items:
Take the Electrical Mast and attach it to the side of your garage (look for the transparent outline on the wall). Then, attach the Meter Base directly below it.
Go inside the garage. Place the Breaker Panel on the wall. This is your main fuse box. Make sure you can easily access it.
Once the Mast and Meter are installed, go to your phone and dial 555-4743.
They will charge you $2,500. You should see a wire appear from the street pole to your house. You now have power to the building.
Equip your Wiring Tool. The logic is:
Meter Base (Outside) → Breaker Panel (Inside) → Individual Breaker → Outlet/Light
Note: You must open the panel door to install breakers. Don't forget to flip the breaker switch to ON!
