You're probably right that this is the simplest way for you to run the plug. My recommendation is that before you touch the door with the drill, you make the hole in some scrap wood. To be absolutely sure your plug head will fit through and your hole plugs will fit.

If you want to try at a more elegant wall solution, this old reddit thread has ideas: https://www.reddit.com/r/amateurradio/comments/hsv7zr/internal_wall_pass_through_for_coax/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android_app&utm_name=androidcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

The turbines in a hydroelectric dam station would probably go for a long time, but the connection to the actual grid may not be so robust. Wires. Transformers. Lubes. Coolants. Connectors. There's always something that can break or run out. The systems are usually made to make this work simple, but there still has to be someone who checks the readings, and replace stuff or some critical bit will stop the electricity from working correctly.

It probably depends a bit on the kind of plant. Like if it's coal, it has to keep being moved into the furnaces. Not necessarily daily, but they get deliveries and refill the setup from storage pretty regularly. Something without fuel like wind, hydro, or solar would probably go until some piece of maintenance isn't performed.
