Being a powergaming nerd, I've started the habbit of seeing which apcs power which doors.
APC hacking to break in somewhere is like cutting a limb off to lose weight (Maybe less permanant), but it works in a pinch. The power comes back on, you can screw back the APC plate, and you learn ways to steal/crime/stop crime way faster then hacking a door.
Morgue's APC powers all the doors connected to it, so riding the morgue chute into morgue grants you access to genetics, robotics, and medbay and maintenance, all for the cost of a brief power outage.
The APC next to the bathroom will kill the power to the janitor's closet, so you can actually get a free pair of galoshes + cleaner grenade if you hack that apc and crowbar the door to the custodial closet open.
Most APC's are physically in the rooms you want access to, so this doesn't always work, but sometimes the apc in the room adjacent to the room you want access to will give you access to a single door. (this may not apply to every server or map, but sometimes hacking the room next to the room you want works and lets you get access)
Being the guy who breaks and enters by causing power outages may cause people to hate you, so execute good judgement when doing this and try to limit damage.
