As wood and plastic are poor conducters of electricity. So both of them would not conduct electricity. Thereby, preventing the person from getting electric shock .

Hope this will help you ..........

Answer:

Plastic or wood are poor conductors of electricity.

Explanation:

Electric boards are fitted on the wall made of plastic or wood because plastic or wood are insulators. An insulator is a material that does not allow electricity  to easily pass through it, therefore wood and plastic are good electrical insulators and by their characteristic they prevent people from being electrocuted.
