Prior to [[Game updates/20140527|version 1.5.1]], a non-electric metalwork bench could be used to make ten elevator shafts for one block of steel and ten copper wires, which was more steel-efficient than an electric metalwork bench.

The only way to get electricity across gaps between [[Crafting Surface|crafting surfaces]] is to place copper wire in an unbroken series of vertically and/or horizontally adjacent spaces between them. Wire can be placed in any space with a back wall or adjacent solid block, crafting surface, or wire.
The only way to get electricity across gaps between [[Crafting Surface|crafting surfaces]] is to place copper wire or a conducting block in an unbroken series of vertically and/or horizontally adjacent spaces between them. Wire can be placed in any space with a back wall or adjacent solid block, crafting surface, or wire. Starting in [[Game updates/20140402|version 1.5]] it may also be placed on a solid block, allowing electricity to be conducted through it, as long as the block isn't an ore block.
 
Copper Wire is also used to craft various items:
* [[Flywheel]]
* [[Electric Stove]]
* [[Electric Kiln]]
* [[Electric Furnace]]
* [[Electric Metalwork Bench]]
* [[Solar Panel]]
* [[Electric Motor]]


It's also possible to use copper wire as a decoration.
