Answer:
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.

Answer:
no.
Explanation:
carbon is good conductor of electricity but more than carbon some other metals are more good conductors like silver, copper aluminium etc.as it is a non metal it is
a) brittle in nature(which means which is easily breakable)
b)non ductile( which means cannot be drawn into wire).so that's why carbon is not used in making wire.
