We study the electronic transport properties of mutually connected wires with loops in a “spaghetti”—like morphology by transfer matrix scaling methods. We obtain the conductance of the system and show the existence of an Anderson metal‐insulator transition. Our results are discussed in connection with recent experiments in conjugated polymers.
