Insulated Wire. Doesn't conduct to metal or semiconductors. (not true)

Properties

Insulated Wire's description is misleading, as it does, in fact, conduct to some semiconductors (PSCN.png and NSCN.png), though it does not conduct to PTCT.png and NTCT.png, or any other elements.

A beam of BRAY.png normally blocks other beams of white BRAY.png, unless the space where they would cross has a particle that is transparent to BRAY.png (FILT.png, INWR.png, ARAY.png, etc.) For some reason, INWR.png is most commonly used for this.

Uses

It can allow creation of "crossings", because it does not conduct to most metals. It is also used as ROM in printers to store the image, and in decoders. It can be used as a destroyable replacement for INWR.png.

Examples

This shows an example of INWR not conducting to METL.
