Heya user !!!

Here's the answer you are looking for

⏩Plastic is covered around the electric wires used at home in order to prevent direct contact with the electric wire.

⏩Plastic is an insulator, so it does not conduct the electricity present in the wire to the person who by mistake touches the wire.

⏩But if the electric wires will be covered with aluminium, which is a conductor, it won't prevent the the conduction of electricity from the wires to the person who touches it and hence will not prevent the direct contact with the electric wire.

✔️Therefore, we cannot use aluminium to cover the electric wires instead of plastic.

Answer:

No , Because ammonium is not an insulating material like plastic but and good conductor of electricity so aluminium foil will not prevent us from getting electric shock while handling electric wires .
