Field Inhibitor
PPCs are equipped with a Field Inhibitor to prevent feedback which could damage the firing unit's electronic systems.[1] This inhibitor degrades the performance of the weapon at close ranges of less than 90 meters. Particularly daring warriors have been known to disengage the inhibitor and risk damage to their own machine when a target is at close range.
Some inhibitors can degrade the performance of a PPC so much that it renders the weapon litle more than a "light show", this is a common practive on Solaris VII[2]
