Each carrier generates a constant amount of power to allocate to its primary systems.  Activating powered systems increases the amount of power drawn from this potential.  When the power drawn by systems exceeds the power generated by the carrier, systems operate at reduced efficiency.

The repair system draws power while the carrier is repairing its hull or subsystems. Repairing the carrier's hull requires substantially more power than repairing a subsystem.

The propulsion system draws power while the carrier is maneuvering and has the highest potential draw of any primary system. The maximum potential draw is reached while the carrier throttle is set to full, maximum turning rate is set, or side thrusters are set to maximum.

The weapons system draws power while the carrier's weapon systems are armed. Each weapon arming switch draws the same amount of power while armed, except the flare launcher and countermeasures which draw less power.

The lift/crane system moves aircraft between their berths and the flight deck. The lift/crane system only draws power while the lift and/or crane are moving.

The radar system draws power while the radar breaker is turned on. When radar is turned off, no power is drawn and no information is shown on the radar display.
