The El Dorado substation is a building near HELIOS One in the Mojave Wasteland. It is located southwest of Vault 11 and northwest of El Dorado Dry Lake.
Layout
The location consists of a single building and a large array of transformers. The building itself is a tall concrete structure with a garage door entrance and a barricaded side door. In front of the building, on its east side, is an empty dumpster and a short distance from the north side's outer wall is a collapsed power line frame.
There are eight NCR troopers guarding the area, one being a sergeant, some of which may be sleeping in the building. The guard will instruct the player character not to enter the building or the fenced-in area, whereupon if they do, the soldiers will become hostile. No matter what reputation the Courier has with the NCR, the troopers will not allow entrance to either restricted area.

- Sunset Sarsaparilla star bottle cap - On a trash can next to the substation building.
