They have strong covalent bonds i e covalent compounds do not conduct electricity
Answers1334:
Carbon itself does not conduct electricity, but its allotrope graphite does. ... Most of the carbon compounds do not conduct electricity because they have low melting and boiling points. Nature of bonding in carbon compounds is different from that observed in ionic compounds thus they are poor conductors of electricity.

For the flow of electricity ions are the necessary intermediates
