While you don't need to extract to complete the flash threat, During the mission you will need 4 wires to repair the generatorso make sure to add them to your inventory or loot them from the power generation complex while exploring. If you don't have these in your inventory, the mission won't work.
When you're ready to deal with flash threats, follow these steps.
Where is the generator hall?
The Generator Hall is located to the left of the power generation complex in the northern area of the Dam Battlefield map. This is a high-traffic location that's often packed with ARCs and raiders, so be prepared for a fight just in case.

Once you reach the generator lobby, you will be prompted to repair the generator. Hope you remember to bring 4 wires!
How to Repair a Generator
To repair the generator, head to the location on the map above and look for the long opening in the ground. Use them to drop down into the Generator Hall. You can also reach this room through nearby doors and corridors, but going straight in will save you a lot of time.

Once inside, stand between the two elevators and look at the end of the westernmost elevator to see a prompt to use 4 wires to repair the elevator. Interact with this prompt to complete the repair. However, you now need to turn on the power switch.
Exit the Generator Hall through the southernmost door at the end of the hall. Go up the stairs and through two more doors, then immediately turn left and go through two more doors. In the corner of this room there will be a box that you can interact with to turn on the power and complete the quest.


In the same room, there is a staircase that leads to the ground level near the North Complex elevator. You can use this extraction point to return to Speranza – although you should be careful when doing so, as raiders often camp out in this location and may try to kill you on sight. So, take your time, hide in cover while waiting for the elevator, and get back to Speranza safely.
