an electric wire is not made of silver although it is the best conductor of electricity because silver is an expensive element and we need to make billions of km of wire which cannot be made by such an expensive element.

Silver is a very expensive element.

It is precious so using it for making electric wires will increase its cost value and also deplete it's volume that naturally occurs .
