How do you get them to work? I cant seem to get the wiring to go from the connections outside to the light switches inside. I can place them, but I cant get them to functions with lights, primarily the ceiling fan light. Would be nice if my settlers could turn the lights off when they go to sleep at night. (Even though I am sure there is no AI to do this, and in the wasteland, who the hell would want the lights off anyways! Except a argument can be made for any light sources being a dinner bell to raiders and deathclaws)

Nobodies gotten this to work yet eh?

Power Source --> Switch --> Power Conduit /w Light in range.

So, your saying I have to put the switch outside? That makes no sense. I haven't been in a house yet where the light switch was outside. I'll keep playing with it and see if I can figure things out.

I dont use a switch, I use a switched pylon.

Main power grid generators --> power grid large pylons placed to string wire throughout sanctuary (or other settlement) -->
ONE single wire from closest power grid pylon to a switched pylon placed near my house -->
ONE single wire from switched pylon next to house connected to a side, ground, or roof mounted conduit - whichever matches bulding type best -->
place conduits spaced evenly apart so they can relay wireless power to all parts of house that will have power requirement

Done. With one single flip of switch, all power for just that one house can be turned on or off.

If you want room level control, then yea, will need to use wall switch, but I havent found elegant way to wire rhe svcker without being messy. So i just use one switched pylon per house that connects to my overall settlement power grid.

The key parts are laying out a good power grid that doesnt look crappy, is accessible, and avoids wires all pver by using strategic placement of small and large pylons as well as conduits in some cases to snake the wire hidden away (for example i will place pylon wire to a hoise roof conduit, and then run wire over roof of house using roof conduit to roof conduit connection, it strings wire invisible from street level as it runs parallel over top of roof

In some places like sanctuary, you can also avoid needless ugly power grid pylons all over by attaching a conduit to an existing street lamp which i made sure not to scrap for just such purpose.

Plus, the conduit powers the light bulb i attach to make the street lamps actually serve their purpose again.
