Electrical wire

An electrical wire is an obstacle appearing as a pair of severed wires protruding from the ground. At regular intervals, an arc of electricity spans from one wire to its pair. Attacking either of the wires until they are destroyed will prevent them from generating sparks or an electric current.

In Pikmin V
In Pikmin V, exposed wires appear as complete wires stripped of the protective coating that run across their passageways. The wire is now indestructible, and the only way to deactivate it and allow passage is to find a valve to shut off the electricity.

In Pikmin: Infection in Progress
Electrical wires appear in Pikmin: Infection in Progress, mainly at Fungal Grotto and in the Abandoned Laboratory. Individual electrical wires can protrude from any surface and either one in a pair may be active or inactive. If one electrical wire in a pair is active and the other is not, the active one will still occasionally spark, remaining a threat. This obstacle is best eliminated by Yellow Pikmin because of their resistance to electricity.
