Are you trying to power IndustrialCraft machines? those will not transmit power through Red Alloy Wires, and you will need to look at the Industrial Craft energy and wiring guides for that.

Otherwise, I'd assume you're attempting to power the Redpower mod's machines, which again, do not gain power through Red Alloy wires, but Blue Alloy wires. Common mistakes, both of them.

And the third idea is that you may need to place a Red Alloy (uninsulated) Wire on the machine before you try attaching the jacketed wire.
