Answer:

1.It will overheat the wires and cause short circuit. Do not touch any electric switch or appliance with wet hands as the water is a good conductor of electricity and will cause a shock.

2.Most electrical wire is covered in a rubber or plastic coating called insulation. ... The purpose of insulation covering the metal part of an electrical wire is to prevent accidental contact with other conductors of electricity, which might result in an unintentional electric current through those other conductors.
