The Testament of Sherlock Holmes Hints
How does the electric box puzzle work?
1 of 4: You can click on any of the connectors in the 5X5 array inside the box to rotate them.
2 of 4: You can also click on the large switch on the right to send an electrical charge into the box through the top two outlets.
3 of 4: Use the switch whenever you want to see how far each charge will get. The connectors that the charge passes through will glow blue briefly.
4 of 4: In order to cause a short circuit, rotate connectors until the top two outlets and the one at the bottom center are all connected together, then hit the switch.
