Insulated Wire is a good heat conductor. It will only take sparks [[Element:SPRK|electricity]] to either [[Element:PSCN|PSCN]] or [[Element:NSCN|NSCN]]. The same rules affect giving sparks, it can give sparks only to these materials. It does not conduct under any circumstances to [[Element:METL|metal]], or thermistors [[Element:NTCT|NTCT]] and [[Element:PTCT|PTCT]].

It is useful for electronics, because it cannot spark or take spark from metal, which can allow creation of "crossings". It is also used in some [[Element:ARAY|ARAY]] devices, because BRAY (shot by ARAY) does not spark INWR (as opposed to METL), and it also lets BRAY go right through.

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 (Template:ElementBtn and Template:ElementBtn), though it does not conduct to Template:ElementBtn and Template:ElementBtn, or any other elements.

A beam of Template:ElementBtn normally blocks other beams of white Template:ElementBtn, unless the space where they would cross has a particle that is transparent to BRAY (FILT, INWR, ARAY, etc.) For some reason, INWR 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 filt.

Examples

This shows an example of INWR not conducting to METL.
