If this is an established capability of networked electrical infrastructure, I’d like to propose that sufficiently skilled deckers be able to do something similar. This could give deckers another way to interact with the physical environment through the Grid. It wouldn’t necessarily need to be powerful or universally available. It could require a room be scanned, appropriate electrical infrastructure (maybe not inside a vehicle), difficult skill checks, significant UE investment, and appropriate counterplay (maybe we start selling plastic outlet covers?)
More broadly, I think that if a technological capability exists ICly, particularly one involving remotely accessible infrastructure, there should at least be consideration of whether player characters specializing in that technology can interact with it. This idea came out of a related complaint I posted regarding the existing electrical-zap mechanic and its effect on immersion. Shocking People for a Word
