Selector switch is 1 slot if memory serves.

No, the components used are what takes up the slots used by the power.
Using your example below, The power uses 8 slots, that leaves 8 left.
Chem is 50%, 50% of 8 slots is 4 components, the Techno magic mumbo
jumbo that happens is what turns those 4 chem components plus whatever
else is used in the power into whatever takes up those 8 slots.  In the
end you are still left with 8 slots available.  I hope that wasn't too
wordy.
