Explanation:
Heya mate :-
Carbon compounds form Covalent bonds. They do not dissociate into ions and do not have charged particles (ions) to carry electric current.

Most carbon compounds like Carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) and other are poor conductors of electricity because of their covalent nature. They exhibit the property of covalency. They (that is, these compounds of covalent nature) are formed not by loos or gain of electrons which tends to form ions. These compounds instead are formed by mutual sharing of electrons and thus no such ionic transmission takes place. in them.
