Answer 2

Answer:

here is your best answer pls mark me brainliest

Explanation:

First of all, water will conduct electricity when mixed with impurities like salts, dust, dirt, etc. Pure water is actually an insulator; but how often do you come in contact with pure (distilled) water and perfectly clean hands — never.

Second, and based on the probability that your wet hands will be conductive, it is simply a safety measure to dry your hands before touching electrical appliances and outlets.
