No, It's very expensive compared to the widely used copper wiring material.

Explanation:

  • Although silver is a very good conductor of electricity, it is still not used in electrical wiring mainly because of its cost.
  • It's very expensive compared to the widely used copper wiring material. Another reason not to use silver is that it oxidizes easily and tarnishes when it comes into contact with air.
  • While copper is used in wires, connectors, printed circuits and other electrical parts across a number of industries, silver is generally used as a component in specialty electronics and sensitive systems, such as industrial switches and automotive contacts.
