Creation
SPRK is created when:
is placed within 2 pixels of any conductor except

Reactions
Creates a current of electricity and is used to turn powered materials on or off.
SPRK cannot be placed alone, you need to put it on a conductive material. SPRK can be blocked by 
in most cases. As long as there is an INSL between the two conductors, it will not go through. Some special elements won't be activated through INSL either, although some will anyway (like 
). Some elements have special rules on which other conductors it can conduct to, see each element for help.
Conductivity
SPRK can travel through most conductors every 8 frames, with 4 frames of activity and then 4 frames of rest before a conductor will receive any more SPRK. SPRK travels twice as fast through 
, , or 
as it does through most other conductors and one quarter as fast in 
. The travel time through is the same for any length.
Resistance
SPRK produces heat when traveling through most conductors. 
produces the most heat this way, getting up to 3323.25°C.

, 
, and 
reach 392°C; METL, BMTL, and BRMT will turn maroon when heated to this temperature. and jump to their current temperature+10C then go back to 22C; 
will do the same, unless it produces plasma. and heat to exactly 22°C if cooled below this temperature.
, 
,

, , , 
, , and 
do not heat up when conducting.
Some conductors will actually cool down when heated above a threshold and sparked. INWR and WATR cool to exactly 22°C if heated above this temperature; 
is strange in that it, in small amounts, it actually cools itself down to near absolute zero, but in large enough amounts can heat itself with to max temperature.
