no, it can't be covered with aluminum foil as aluminium is a conductor of electricity and we may get electric shock whereas plastic is a bad conductor of electricity so it is used to cover wires.

The correct response will be "No".

Explanation:

  • Though aluminum seems to be metal, rather metals have become excellent electrical or heat conductors.
  • Enough that, if we could somehow approach contact with those wires, we could have an electrical shock that could even result in serious injuries or death.

Electromagnetic cables could therefore be surrounded with aluminum foil at residence or households.
