Welcome to our guide for the Tapping the Grid mission in Starfield! Tapping the Grid is one of the misc missions you can pick up on New Atlantis. To start it, travel down to the Well then head for the three-way split near the Medbay. Locate and speak with Louisa Reyes to learn about the issues with the power drain.
Locate the Junction Box
After agreeing to help her, Louisa will send you to the junction box on the wall next to UC Surplus. Interact with it to open the junction box door then interact with the Electrical Panel to automatically flip the switch.
To reach the second junction box, travel to Trade Authority then, while facing the sign, head right then take the stairs on the left of the entrance to the hallway up. After the second flight of stairs, follow the walkway left and use the switch on the stone pillar to open the automatic doors. Climb the stairs and you’ll find the box behind the door on the left at the top. Same deal as before open the box and flip the switch.
On to the third one! Head back down both flights of stairs then follow the walkway taking the next left down another flight of stairs. Head straight past Jake’s to find it on the wall. Again, open the box and flip the switch.
For the next one, head back to the Trade Authority and when facing the sign, head left and go up the stairs. At the top, take another left heading up another flight of stairs then enter the nearby door. Before you can access the junction box, you’ll need to power down the secondary breakers. To the press the breakers in the order we listed with 1 being on the far left and 4 being on the far right: 2, 3, 1. This will open the door on the right, gaining you access to the final breaker allowing you to flip the switch.
Talk to Louisa Reyez
Return to Louisa who can be found in the building across from the Medbay. The entrance to this building will be near the elevator. Once in the building, head up to the top and speak with her to complete the quest. You’ll be rewarded 75 EXP and 2000 credits. You’ll also automatically start the Alternating Currents mission.
