Quick Answer
- Bring three Wires before deploying.
- Go southwest of Southern Station near Plaza Rosa.
- Look for a roof terrace with blue tarp and a plank bridge.
- Interact with the yellow junction box connected to the solar panels.
Eyes On the Prize Requirements
You need three Wires in your carried inventory before you reach the terrace. Also complete the preceding Tian Wen quest chain through Market Correction and deploy to Buried City.
- Carry 3 Wires.
- Have Buried City access.
- Use a light, low-risk kit because the objective is a single interaction once you reach the roof.
Where to Get Three Wires
You can buy Wires from Celeste, loot them in Electrical and Technological areas, or salvage them by recycling Power Cables or Batteries. Useful loot areas include the Power Generation Complex, Research and Administration building, and Dam Control Tower.
If you have been running related quests, Power Out rewards Wires and Flickering Threat also uses them, so you may already have a stock.
Where to Find the Secluded Roof Terrace
The secluded roof terrace is southwest of Southern Station and directly southwest of Plaza Rosa, on the westernmost building in its small cluster. The blue tarpaulin is the easiest confirmation cue.
- Move to the group of buildings below Plaza Rosa.
- Climb onto the western building in the cluster.
- Continue west along the rooftop.
- Use the small plank bridge on the right to reach the terrace with blue tarp hanging around it.
ARC machines patrol the area, but the terrace itself offers useful cover.
How to Rewire the Solar Panel
Rewire the solar panel by interacting with the yellow junction box connected to the panels while carrying three Wires. The interaction consumes the required materials and completes the objective.
- Reach the tarped roof terrace.
- Find the yellow electrical box beside the solar panels.
- Confirm all three Wires are still in your carried inventory.
- Interact with the box to rewire the system.
