    Sodium is a metal but we use copper for electrical wires not sodium because sodium is highly reactive among these metals and would react with other substances, so if we use sodium wiring it can cause many problems and obviously no one wants sodium wiring in their houses. sodium has only one valence electron and that causes sodium be to be unstable.
