Manfred Moolhuysen made a subpart that can be used to compose a curved
electrical wire. I believe he has submitted it for voting, but I don't
think he has posted it to the newsgroups.
I have edited LDraw-mode for Emacs to support easy inclusion of curved
electrical wire between the electrical contact parts. I have written
a tutorial on how to use it at
http://www.math.uio.no/~fredrigl/technic/ldraw-mode/index.html#bezier
but the text in question is still commented out in the HTML file until
Manfred's subpart becomes official. If you are HTML savvy, you can
take a look at the tutorial.
In the mean time, you can check out an example image
http://www.math.uio.no/~fredrigl/technic/ldraw-mode/wire2.gif
The corresponding DAT file is
http://www.math.uio.no/~fredrigl/technic/ldraw-mode/wire2.dat
but it still requires the sub part in question, so you cannot view the
above URL without it, unfortunately.
