WHY CONSIDER IT
It is a useful comparison point when power infrastructure is the project, but the turbine alone says nothing about a balanced steam network.
When it fits: Select it for a power expansion after identifying the steam source and the rest of the route.
The tradeoff: One source recipe run makes 1 and lists 8 Wiring Kit, 4 Iron Gear, 2 Pipe at Fabricator; 1 recipe variant(s) for this output are grouped together. Verify access where the pack is incomplete. Count its build cost separately from boilers, pipes and fuel; this recipe is not an operating-power simulation.
