The coal and the graphite are not used in the electric wire because they are very brittle in nature.

Explanation:  

  • They are allotrope of the carbon so they are good conductor of the electricity but they do not use in the electric wire.
  • Graphite and coal are very soft in nature, brittle and also not malleable that is the reason they are not selected for the electric wire. So that is the reason copper is used in the electric wire.
