Castling is the third out of eight puzzles that you can find in this region. It is relatively straightforward compared to other puzzles in the game but takes a bit of understanding of each mechanism in the area. You will have to solve this puzzle using a couple of RGB converters and a pressure pad.

When you enter the area with the puzzle, you will notice a few gates locked with electric barriers with an RGB converter sitting in the middle. Pick up the converter first.

As illustrated in the image above, a blue panel will be there in front of you. Connect it and then turn to the right. You will discover a pressure pad. You'll notice a green laser conduit hidden behind another barrier as you approach it. Connect it to the red conduit that is nearby. Place the RGB converter on top of the pressure pad to remove the barrier beside the blue panel.

As you approach the barrier that was just eliminated, you'll find another converter. Return to the first one after you've retrieved it.

Set the second converter aside for now. Go to the first one, pick it up, and connect the green and red conduits. Place it a little further from the pressure panel so that the green and red lasers start flowing.

Now, for the second converter, pick it up and connect it to the following: The green laser conduit, the first RGB converter, and the red panel on your left (Not to be confused with the red laser conduit). Place the second converter atop the pressure panel.

You can go towards the deactivated barrier beside the red panel and claim the treasure. This concludes the solution for the Castling puzzle in The Talos Principle 2.
