Highly Conductive Embroidery Thread can also be used as a sewing yarn and is available in 2 basic resistances per meter (100 and 300 ohm). Product oxidation and color changes do not harm conductivity. All electrical devices must be tested by the developer and have to conform to regulations and laws. Madeira USA only supplies a thread with the described properties and no electrical applications of any kind. 
The washability of the finished garment depends on the electrical components, the way it has been embroidered and the washing process. For HC threads, use the following guidelines:
Protect the circuitry with insulating thread or waterproof film 
Wash up to 30 °C/86 °F without bleaching or acid agents
Always use a laundry bag
