Question for a mod

Hey, i think i need help.
I am trying to make a mod. It is a small cabinet you can fabricate and put anywhere where you can put in one artifact. this cabinet has a set_state in and a power_in. if it is powered and set to ON, the effect of the artifact gets surrpressed (like from the artifact transport case) and it uses a small amount of power. if the switch gets to OFF, the artifacts effects dont get surpressed and i needs mno power. okay, it works all fine yet. but if i put anything else on the junction box which powers my mod cabinet, the effect from the artifact gets surpressed, no matter if it is activated or not and i dont get why.

Here is the code and 3 images. on the first you can see that the lever is off and no power is drawn (display). on the second image you can see that the lever is on, 133kw power are drawn and the artifacts effect is surpressed. on the third image i have connected a relay to the junction box. the lever is off, no power is drawn but the effect is magically surpressed...

Sorry my fault. Had put them on private. Now they should be public

I would just say that Relays do odd things with power in my experience, although that may be nothing to do with your problem, you could try connecting some other component such as a lamp instead of the Relay to see if it has the same effect.

Yeah, you are right. I just noticed that as soon as you link a relay to any junction box, all junction boxes where showed as "activated" even if there is no power drain at all. I just dont get it why my mod cabinet is influenced by the state of the junction box 😅 on the other hand, i dont even know if this cabinet makes any sense at all, it is just a Feasibility study for me 😜

I thought, perhaps you could use the sky artifact as a fire extingisher. Or the thermal artifact as a ballast flora killer. Or the psychosis artifact as a troll device with button activation
