[Suggestion] Material Processor - available to TURN ON/OFF the same way as with Electric Furnace

Material Processor - make it available to TURN ON/OFF (Activate/Deactivate) the same way as with Electric Furnace!

Now I have to break/remove connection with Electricity Tool (cable/wire) in my hand, every time I finished my work on this bench. And then re-connect it when I want to use it again. It's because the high consumption of electricity by many devices (higher tier benches).
It is even more ridiculous that there is an ON/OFF switch on the front panel of the Material Processor itself - at least graphical/visual meaning - but there is no possibility to turn it off and on when needed.

I house my generators afway from my machines to keep the noise dwon but that means i have to travel out of my workshop and skip down to the power house to deactivate the generators. If there was a switch i could use it would make life easier or maybe even a bluetooth remote or even better a servant :D. Power switch first maybe we can work on the servant at a later date ;)

I 100% agree. It would be nice to integrate a power switch that runs all of your generators on or off. I too house my generators aways from the rest of my buildings to keep the noise down. Even on a prospect it would be very help to have!

I have a power connector on the wall behind the machines and I remove and replace the cable. A switch would be preferable.
