Explanation:

The reason is the strong electromagnetic field between the two charges of the electrons and the two positive charges of the protons in the nucleus. The protons and neutrons are bound to each other with the strong force. ... Single protons in matter cannot be enough in number to carry the currents a la electrons

Explanation:

Charges are transferred by electrons which we all know. But why can't it be transferred by protons? Well, I searched on Google where I found similar questions already being asked on many sites. However, I didn't find any answers. They were saying that electrons are mobile and similarly protons are busy being nucleons. Also, someone was saying, "By the simple mechanism of separating two things, electrons are pulled out of their Fermi energy levels and into a conduction band to effect charge transference and the creation of a static charge" which I didn't understand at all.
