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]].

Insulated Wire's description is misleading, as it does, in fact, conduct to some semiconductors ({{ElementBtn | PSCN}} and {{ElementBtn | NSCN}}), though it ''does'' not conduct to {{ElementBtn | PTCT}} and {{ElementBtn | NTCT}}, or any other elements.
 
 
 
Brown {{ElementBtn | BRAY}} normally blocks White {{ElementBtn | BRAY}}, unless the space where they would cross has a metallic particle in it. However, Brown BRAY is blocked by most metals, so it cannot pass through multiple layers. Brown {{ElementBtn | BRAY}} CAN pass through Insulated Wire, so INWR is used to store information. (there's really no way to explain this, sorry)

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.

Creation

It can be created only by drawing with the brush.

Reactions

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

Properties

Insulated Wire will melt at 1687 into molten INWR, but it is not affected by pressure.

Uses

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 ARAY devices, because BRAY (shot by ARAY) does not spark INWR (as opposed to METL), and it also lets BRAY go right through.

Examples

This shows an example of INWR not conducting to METL.
