Copper can be toxic [as can zinc], but you need some and the body regulates it very closely. It has to because copper is VERY common in the environment and some water has so much copper in it naturally that it will leave green or blue stains in the sink. Copper shares the same elimination system that silver does using Selenium as the chelating agent. Might want to supplement that. Transformer wire is pretty small in diameter and has a heavy hard to remove coating of varnish as the insulator. Coax cable is likewise quite thin. #12 or #10 romex or grounding wire is the way to go and is .999 copper by industry standard.
Copper will not form a stable ion, therefore does not contribute to increasing conductivity when being electrolysed in distilled water...no "runaway"..but also doesn't register on a PPM or conductivity meter. I can detect no flavor. The only way to tell you made it is with a laser pointer and there's no way to tell how strong. Colloidal copper generators can be quite simple. I use a 24 volt DC power supply with an LED in series with one of the wires just to show that all the connections are made and current is flowing. Wires....about 8-10 inches long.
