Basic overcurrent protection? In my sci-fi?

Next you're gonna tell me you can't just "re-route power" by pressing buttons on a screen and not, you know, actually unhooking any wires!

Building everything to be able to re-route to everything is WHY all the consoles are constantly exploding.

What do you mean you dont want to reroute all the power for the warp engines into the navigation console?

With that much power you can navigate anywhere, at least until the console melts through the floor

O'Brien constantly breaking good cardassian engineering with infernal federation secondary backups.

Exactly, sure you could have relays or Automatic Transfer Switches like we use from generators. But if you're just slamming more power at stuff than it's meant to use, where's your overcurrent protection?
