He didn't though, at least for now.<br/><br/>"Actually I guess there's no point keeping this secret from them" he said, pointing at the ceiling, "they'll already know if they set up those bars. There are three ways of causing something to short-circuit. The first is to do something that increases the electrical resistance, causing it to heat up until it burns. That's fine for your smaller wires, but these are solid metal bars. They're not going to be that fragile. They're already getting hot from the resistance, I think, that's probably why the room is getting so warm. They're like little electrical heaters."<br/><br/>"The second way is to trip a safety switch or fuse, but they're obviously not built with safety in mind so I doubt they even have one. Last way is to divert the power in a direction it's not meant to go, bridging the gap by some conductive material or water. You can fry some of the components if the current flows the wrong way. That's fine for circuitry but like I said before these are just solid metal bars, the electricity is just flowing through them from one side to the other. There's nowhere to divert it."<br/><br/>"We could probably do more if we could find the transformer that's feeding them off the electrical grid or the generator if they operate independently... but that's probably outside this room somewhere."<br/><br/>As he always did when stating a fact, his voice grew confident and excited. He was nervous about everything else, but science gave you solid reliable information that you could count on and he trusted his own intelligence if nothing else.
