Electrical Components: Location

You can get Electrical Components in one of three ways - Scavenging, Crafting, or Recycling.

Scavenging

Electrical Components are usually found in containers and cabinets located in zones that are marked 'electrical' on the map. But there are some areas that are better scavenging areas for them. These include:

  • Power Generation Complex (Dam Battlegrounds): Find this in the north with numerous underground rooms and breachable bins for electrical loot.​​
  • Pilgrim’s Peak (The Blue Gate): The underground bunker below the tower is highly recommended for high-tier and electrical drops.​
  • Fuel Control (Spaceport): Though loot density is lower, electrical gear appears frequently in this sector.​
  • Server cabinets and electrical/industrial fields: Common across various residential and utility locations can also yield electrical components. We found it in the Testing Annex building on the Dam Battlegrounds map.

Crafting

You can also craft Electrical Components. For this, you will need:

  • 8x Plastic Parts
  • 4x Rubber Parts
  • Refiner I

Recycling

Many items also yield electrical components once recycled. These include:

  • Advanced Electrical Components
  • Fried Motherboard
  • Hornet Driver
  • Power Rod
  • Rocketeer Driver
  • Spotter Relay
  • Wasp Driver
  • Surge Shield Recharger
  • Combat Mk. 2
