A {{name}} converts electrical power from a connected power grid into [[broadcast power]] that can be received by capable objects that are currently in the same zone as the {{name}}. It cannot transmit to other zones beyond its own, and it only works if it is properly connected to an active electrical grid that is providing power to it.{{Code Reference|class=BroadcastPowerTransmitter}}{{Code Reference|class=CollectBroadcastChargeEvent}} It will broadcast up to the same amount of charge that it is receiving from the electrical grid. Individual objects that can receive broadcast power have their own limits on how much incoming broadcast power they can use per turn.

Objects that are capable of receiving and using broadcast power are: {{#cargo_query:tables=ArtifactData|fields=CONCAT('{{(}}favilink id{{!}}',ObjectID,'{{)}}')|where=ChargeConsumeBroadcast IS NOT NULL}}, and anything with the [[radio-powered]] mod.{{XML Reference|object}} All of these objects can also receive broadcast power from satellites to a certain depth underground as described on the [[radio-powered]] wiki page.

{{favilink|Rodanis Y}} is perhaps the most iconic example of broadcast power in use. Rodanis Y's state of activation is determined entirely by whether the Grit Gate {{name}} is currently turned on and operational. Rodanis Y will be deactivated whenever the broadcast power station is off or broken.
