enabling a power cell to explode requires either an explosives or armoury (small arms) roll and takes a base of 30 seconds.

rigging that explosion to trigger when the comm is used requires either traps or electronics operation (comms) and takes a base of 30 seconds.

A lot of people are going to hear it, but most won't do anything. At least not right away. Some people will start acting on it once its apparent that the ship has been taken and they start working through everything in their minds. Immediately, a few people might act on it, but everyone aside from the top leaders of the maneuver drive, the reactors, and the missiles won't be able to do more than vent atmosphere and start fires.
