hardwire
Build into circuits
To hardwire is to connect electronic components with permanent wiring rather than plugs or wireless signals.
The figurative sense dominates modern usage: something hardwired is built-in, innate, or unchangeable: Humans are hardwired to seek social connection.
The spelling varies between hardwire, hard-wire, and hard wire.
