The Nellis array is a location in Nellis Air Force Base in the Mojave Wasteland. It is located just east of the Nellis hangars.

Layout

Exterior

Outside on the top of the Nellis array are several broken solar panels. The player character will need to pass a Repair check of 65, or have scavenged parts from HELIOS One, which require a 20 Repair skill to acquire, in order to repair these solar panels. No reputation with the Boomers is gained directly for fixing the solar panels; however, completing the quest Sunshine Boogie will earn reputation with the faction.

There is a computer terminal by the gate. Until the generators are powered back on, it displays the error message "ERROR #P38C4K" "Generator power source unavailable" It checks array efficiency when the array is operational again (120% at best.)

Interior

The inside of the facility is quite simple. Inside the main entrance is a small room with a doorway straight ahead and another door to the left. The forward door leads to an enclosed gangway that goes over the main generator room below. To the left is another room with a door to the right. The door leads to an exposed gangway with stairs that lead down to the lower level. The area below the building is sectioned into two areas. The stairs lead into the smaller of the two sections with electric transformers and generators. The larger room contains more electrical equipment, an exit, shelving with ammunition boxes, artillery shells, and giant ant nectar. The exit leads to another exit to the outside by way of a tunnel.

Generators

There are several generators in the lower level of the array building. The generators are off by default. They are used in the quest Ant Misbehavin'.

Notable loot

Notes

  • It is interesting to note that the parts to repair the solar array have been scavenged from solar reflectors, i.e. mirrors, while the Nellis array consists of solar panels, i.e. photovoltaic cells. The two use an entirely different technology to harvest solar energy. It is possible that Helios One is a photovoltaic thermal hybrid solar collector, which uses both types of technology simultaneously for greater efficiency. This would allow the parts to be compatible with both arrays.
  • It seems that once the quest Volare! is completed, there is no access to the interior of the array without a key of some sort.

Appearances

The Nellis array appears only in Fallout: New Vegas.

Behind the scenes

  • "ERROR #P38C4K" "Generator power source unavailable" is a play on the PEBCAK error code.
  • The real-life Nellis Air Force Base does have a solar power plant, constructed in 2007.
