The printer won't park the nozzle by itself to let the layer cool down, but you can trick it into doing so by adding a purge tower or somesuch. It will waste some filament, but the alternative of a g-code script to park and wait will still have issues due to oozing and losing pressure in the nozzle.

Alternatively, printing multiple parts would also allow for more time per layer.

The minimum layer time setting is just the time until the slicer tries to start slowing down, but the minimum speed will still dictate the actual layer time. And lowering minimum speed also doesn't help as the nozzle then spends more time near the part, heating and softening previous layers.

    Like JayleneSlide mentioned, those elements aren't actually live as pictured, that's the outer casing. But even if they were live, they wouldn't arc at that distance.

    A general rule of thumb for arc distance in air on earth is 1000V per 1mm. That means that each nut would have to be 0.24mm apart from each other (assuming 240v, it'd be 0.12mm or about 0.004 inches in a 120v country) to start arcing.

    Once the arc starts, that distance can increase. This is because arcs will ionise the air, creating a lower conduction path for further arcing. This will continue until the hot ionised air rises away from the conduction path and gets too long to sustain the arcs.

    But in any case, those nuts will never arc for a second reason; if they were live they would be dead shorted to each other anyway through the metal case that they're bolted to.

    Crypt of the necrodancer is a good roguelike for this, there is meta-progression if you play the game floor by floor but if you go into the all zones mode everything is unlocked by default. It is possible to defeat every enemy hitless, but you'll need to learn the pattern of movements to do so by yourself.
