Scattered throughout City 17, Force Fields consist of two generators, each one on either side of the path it is intended to protect. Invisible from a distance, the force field generated between the two pylons prevents entry of anything living that does not register with the system as being with the Combine, instead emitting a humming sound when in physical contact. However, other than vehicles driven by non-recognized personnel, the system will not block inanimate objects. Some of them are seen in-game being powered off standard human power supply sockets, Combine power generators, or from Combine APC batteries. They are placed at regular intervals along railway tracks in City 17. It is worth noting that while the player is merely stopped from moving into a force field, going closer will actually cause a discharge (as seen in the chapter Entanglement where Alyx attempts futilely to stop Mossman making off with Eli Vance). In fact, if the player is caught in the middle of a force field when it is switched on, it results in instant death.
