Maximum safe wattage of circuit doesn't take joint plates into account

Click on a conductive heavy watt wire, and on the energy tab it shows the maximum safe wattage for that entire circuit.  If there are any regular heavy watt wires, it will show 20kW, otherwise it shows 50kW.

It does not however take joint plates into account. A circuit with all conductive heavywatt wire, but regular heavy watt joint plates still shows 50kW, but the joint plates will overload and take damage over 20kW.


Steps to Reproduce
  • Build a circuit that draws >20kW using conductive heavy watt wire
  • Connect to the dev generator through a regular heavy watt joint plate
  • Energy tab on circuit shows maximum safe wattage of 50kW
  • Joint plate overloads and takes damage at <50kW
