Power Fields,^[1] also known as disruption fields,^[3] are a type of energy field generated by Power Weapons.^[1]

When a power weapon is activated, the power field will sheathe across the weapon's surface in what is described as a crackling blue haze of discharged energy. Power Fields allow these weapons to disrupt any solid matter it touches, including even Power Armour.^[1]
