No power.
Hi having a problem connecting power, nothing else is connected, Even though it is producing 205kps of power, it just isn't getting to the battery, https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ugc/1017192629346068512/D76FF71B7129C077C29D12AE43B356E8B8DC1677/

My guess is the rest of your circuit requires too much power, so the generator is overloaded. Interact with the battery to see.

You may have a disconnect somewhere along your wiring. You know power is oassing through properly if it turns blue when connected to something.

Are you within base range?

What is that wire connecting to, immediately after the generator, in the middle of grass? It looks like there is nothing there, which could be a problem. Next guess would be, based on the size of the base icon, something is out of range. If not that, third guess would be what Orion said, that the network is overloaded.

It is only connected to the battery, nothing else, and the battery you can see it in the pic, and it is inside the base range.

There's clearly a wire coming out of the battery. The generator will attempt to power everything in the circuit it's connected to, and not just the things directly connected to it.

That cable I just cut so isn't connected to the battery, but I managed to get all the power working, but now the miners are doing nothing, and it shows power is being produces, but the power grid is just slowly running down to empty, https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ugc/1016066851344544429/45FF9B2AD3D7221B214690133C3413A3F5F94B7C/

disconnect all cables to the battery,then connect a new from the powersource and lay a shorter cable to the battery,when the cable stay blue lay it down and connect a new cable to baterry.and u also can try to move the battery closer to the powersource

Had this issue several times myself, turns out when the grid is overloaded, it doesnt show correct numbers for power output and storage.
Try adding 1 or 2 more EM generators, most likely that'll fix it.

I'm at a loss, I got now 9 power generators, and added 3 batteries between the generators and the miners, and I replaces all the cables, and it just keeps showing no grid connected, even though it is all within my base

It doesn't just need to be within the base, it needs to actually be wired together. Show us your connections.

Odd thing is though on Another planet I'm mining salt, and all the power to the miners is actually working, Just this planet I'm on now, it just doesn't want to work.

Your using more power than you have available you need more generators .

I have added more since then as power is now over 1400.
