Creation

Created when BTRY is placed near most conductible materials or when ELEC hits a conductible material.

However, there are many varied ways of producing SPRK, a comprehensive list is not required for reference. The most specific ways that might not be guessed can be listed here, but because they are usually specific to particular elements (such as QRTZ's specific temperature conduction and high-pressure conduction, which are more likely to be listed within those given elements.

Reactions

Creates a current of electricity and is used to turn powered materials on or off.

Cannot be placed alone, you need to put it on a conductive material. SPRK can travel through most conductors every 8 frames. It has 4 frames of activity and then 4 frames of rest before a conductor will receive any more SPRK. Some exceptions to this are water and GOLD. SPRK creates heat when traveling through most conductors.

SPRK can be blocked by INSL 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 PSTN. Some elements have special rules on which other conductors it can conduct to, see each element for help.

Properties

Not an actual particle; just an electrical current.

Uses

A must have for all electronics. Many different uses.
