Applied Energistics Power?

[Jazz]

I just made a Molecular Assembler by 26x11x35 and it should use 1404MJ/t, I'm giving 1800MJ/t with tesseracts connected to power relays so there won't be any energy loss but it don't work... The controller looks like it have power but the acces terminat won't be powered at all. And it worked the first time I connected it but I broke a block of the assembler and then put it back in then it didn't work anymore.
Any suggestions? I'll put some screenshots below. Oh, and if I made any grammar mistakes I just want to let you know english is not my main language and go ahead and tell me what my mistake is and the correct form so I can imporve my english.

The Mollecular Assembler:

The Power Plant:

The energy transfer with tesseracts and power relays:

from what i can remember tesseracts do have a 25% loss or so. you`d be better using conduits, which have only 5% loss, and output 500-1000(depends on version) mj/t per connection.

 

[Jazz]

The thing is.. I started using conduits which didn't work at all then used this setup with tesseracts and power relays and first time it worked like a charm....then I was stupid enough to break one of the blocks molecular assembler is made of and didn't work anymore.

Have u tried disconnecting the power from the mac, let the mac reform and connect the power again?

 

[Jazz]

Yes, I did..

The real question is: Why would you need a MAC this big?

The real question is: Why would you need a MAC this big?

Minium stone conversion, probably.

Or compressed storage blocks.

What's the total output of your power plant? The tesseracts should be enough on the AE side (even though 25% loss is massive when it's that many), unless your network is using a ton of power without the MAC, so I would make sure you're producing enough power to keep up.

 

[Jazz]

The power plant produce 2400 MJ continuously but it can go up to 5200 for as long as redstone energy cell last, so it's not a problem. And about other machinery...just few TE machines nothing more so the mac will have enough energy.

just few TE machines nothing more so the mac will have enough energy.

I was thinking more about the rest of your ME network, how much power does that use without the MAC? Also, are all of the tesseracts at your power plant running on the same frequency, or do you have different frequencies for different things? If they're different frequencies, how many of the power plant tesseracts are set to go to the ME system?

 

[Jazz]

Same frequency for everything and the rest of the ME network use about 73 Units so not a big deal. The thing is the controller look like is powered but when I open the interface it's offline. Also thanks for the responses.

 

[Seraph089]

The controller looking powered is a bit strange. Does the rest of the ME network work if the MAC is disconnected?

And with a setup that big, it really should have a seperate tesseract frequency, especially on AE where it needs constant power. That would work out to 24 tesseracts on the power plant side, if it was set up that way you could monitor the power use.

 

[Jazz]

Yes, the rest work if the MAC is disconected and because the AE system is pretty much the only significantly thing using the freqency you can say it's dedicated to it.

Edit: The setup worked till' I broke a block from MAC, after I put it back on it didn't work anymore.

Edit 2: Thanks for your help but I'll just make it a bit smaller and move the AE closer to the power plant to connect with conduits, hopefully it will work , if not so be it.

another solution: plug in all power to several energy cells. set too 100MJ/t then send those through a cable to your controller. Add as many cells as you need to keep up
