It cannot be used as a wire because it has no tensile strength worth crowing about. All metals beat carbon hands down for conducting electricity with Silver Gold and Copper being at the top. Carbon per-se is not a good conductor, it's ressistance increses with it's thickness

Hi mate......♥️
Explanation:
No, We can't use carbon to make the wires for household usage.
1) For the wires, we need a material which is a good conductor, so that it will have the proper flow of the current.
2) All the allotropes of carbon except Graphite is a bad conductor of electricity. And we can't use graphite in wires as it is brittle in nature.
