The electric furnace in rust is a significant increase in alternative wood combustion. I turned to them at my base and immediately pay attention to how much time and resources they save. There is no more constant wood agriculture just to keep my smelting operation running!
Get your electric stove


The first thing is the first, you must get and make an electric furnace:
- Find or find care of the electric stove blueprint at level 2 workbench
- You can find a blueprint in an elite chest, military coffin, or drops from scientists
- Or, research directly at the work desk for 75 memo
- Make it at the level 3 work desk using:
- 5 high quality metals
- 200 metal fragments

Power requirements
Each electric furnace requires 3 watts of rust per minute (RWM) to operate. I always plan my electrical system by considering this number, especially when running several stoves.
Prepare your resources


I have found solar panels to be the most reliable resources for electric furnaces. This is the way I set it:
- Place your solar panel facing north to maximize power plants
- To check the direction, press F1 to open the console, type “Perf 5” and find a compass
- Place them on your roof or in an open area where they will not be blocked by walls or other structures
- Each panel produces up to 20 power during the daytime
- Remember that output varies throughout the day and down to zero at night
- Connect your panel to a small battery
- Small batteries require 25 low -class fuel for crafts
- It stores up to 100 power and produces a maximum of 15 RWM
- This stored power is very important for night operations

The cable is all together
This is my step by step process to connect the system:
- If you use several solar panels, connect to the combiner root first
- Place Root Combiner in a place that can be accessed
- Run the wire from each solar panel to the input on the root combiner
- Power output will be added together
- Link the root combiner (or single panel) to your small battery input
- Looking for a socket labeled “Power In”
- Connect your cable from resources to this input
- From the battery output, connect to the electricity or splitter branch
- Electric branches allow you to separate a certain amount of power
- Splitter divides power equally between outputs
- Set the electric branch to allocate 3 RWM for each furnace
- Choose an electric branch
- Type “3” in the interface to appoint 3 power to the output of the branch
- Run the cable from your branch output to each electric furnace
- Connect to the power input socket in each furnace
You will need a cable device to make this connection. It costs 75 metal fragments for crafts and are very important for any electricity.

Take further: Automation
I have automated the whole process of my smelting, and this is a game-Changer:
- Install the storage adapter to your furnace and storage box
- Handicraft storage adapter (respectively 75 metal fragments)
- Place it directly into your container and stove stove
- Use a conveyor to automatically feed ingredients
- Craft Industry Conveyor (3 HQM, 2 Gears, Each of 1 Electric Motor)
- Connect between your storage adapter
- Set the correct flow direction (use a hammer to turn it)
- Prepare the right flow:
- Raw Material Box → Conveyor → Electric Furnace → Conveyor → Output Box
- Make sure to label your box clearly so that you don’t mix input and output

Solve general problems
When my furnace died and lived, I found several possible causes:
- Power fluctuations: Check whether your battery is full of charging during the day
- Add more solar panels if needed
- Consider adding a second battery for a larger setting
- Connection problem: Verify all electricity connections
- Follow the cable and make sure everything is connected correctly
- Find a warning symbol in the electrical component
- Component damage: Check if there are damaged components
- Fix or replace the damaged part
- Consider protecting your electrical system with additional walls or special electricity spaces

Last thought
I have found that the electric furnace really changed my rust experience. Initial investment in components and time regulation paid quickly with the amount of wood stored and the comfort of automatic smelting.

FAQ
Connect a Resources (sun, wind, battery) to Electric furnace. Use a Switch or smart timer for automation. Make sure at least 3 power units to function.
Give at least 3 Electricityplace Ore and fuel (wood/charcoal) inside, and turn on. It goes silent and efficientMake it safer from normal furnaces.
Open the key through Tree of technology level 2 workbench (75 memo) or examine it using A Research Table (75 Memo). It can also be found on Loot Crates.
Use a Wire tool To connect a Resources (sun, wind, or battery) to Power input from the stove. Optional: Add a Switch or timer For better control.
