Hey mate!!
Given:- Define Conductors and Insulators
Electricity (electric current) flows when there is a source of current (like a dry cell or a battery) and a closed conducting path or circuit.
\implies{Materials that allow electricity to flow through them easily are called conductors. }
All the metals are good conductor of electricity. Graphite is the only non metal that is a good conductor of electricity.
\implies{Materials that do not allow electricity to flow through them easily are called insulators.}
Rubber, plastic, wood and glass all are insulators. Insulators are used to protect us from the dangerous effects of electricity. The plastic coating that you see on tools used by electricians is an insulating material.
