  • And plastic itself is an insulator

So, what will we use to make wire?

The metals like

  • Copper
  • Silver
  • Aluminium

Are the best metals which conduct electricity. Silver is the best conductor yet not used often because it is expensive.

Widely used wires are copper and aluminium.

What is this process called?

This process is called DUCTILITY.

DUCTILITY:-

The property of metals which can be transformed into thin wires is ductility.
