Wired glass breaks share characteristics with which type of glass?

Wired glass, also known as wire-reinforced glass, shares characteristics with plate glass because both types are made using similar manufacturing processes and have distinct transparency and flatness qualities. Wired glass consists of a sheet of glass in which a mesh of wire is embedded during the manufacturing process, aimed at providing a higher level of safety; it retains somewhat the original properties of plate glass, such as its smooth surface and clarity.

While wired glass does offer some enhanced safety features due to the wire mesh, its fundamental properties—like being a flat and transparent surface—are reminiscent of those found in plate glass. This is why plate glass is the most accurate choice for comparison in this context.
