Cybernetics

Cost: Variable
Cybernetics is a physical advantage that generally costs the same as an equivalent advantage (B46)
Electrical and Maintenance limitations can be applied to the implant:
:"apply to the implant, not to your overall capabilities"
These are Temporary Disadvantages but B115 actually does not describe how to limit it to implants instead of overall capability.
Temporary Disadvantage, Shutdown (PU8p18) explains:
:“temporary” means the disadvantage is irrelevant after it causes the advantage to fail
:Cybernetics (p. B46) are the most common example, with
Temporary Disadvantage, Shutdown, Electrical, signifying
that surges can shut down the cybernetic advantages
instead of shutting down the owner.
The idea behind the pricing is that by shutting off the limb, it would prevent the temporary disadvantage from affecting the entire person.
Basically instead of "I'm electrical when I use my arm" it's "I'm not electrical when I'm not using my arm".
