Unlike some mods that offer "magic blocks', electrical age consists of many different kinds of parts that work together, just like real world electric circuits.
Before you can start the mod, make sure you create a tree resin collector. This is placed on a tree to obtain resin which is smelted in a furnace to make rubber. You need it.
Electrical age starts relatively simple, but the largest builds can be quite challenging, even for skilled players and industrial control experts.
For players in large modpacks, all the useful parts of electrical age can be unlocked at the 800V tier. If you're careful and a little smart about it, you don't have to be an expert to get there. On the other hand, if you're a diehard and want a serious challenge, you might want to give the very high voltage gas and steam turbines a try.
Here are some example systems (with power generation and machines). This is not the only way to build. if you're creative you might be able to do better!
