Conductors are those materials which allow electricity to pass through them .

While insulators are those materials which do not allow electricity to pass through them.

Water is a good conductor of electricity if impurities are there while pure water is insulator of electricity .

Answer -

We should not touch electrical appliances with wet hands because our body is a good conductor of electricity and since we may get electric shocks.

A conductor allows electricity to pass through it and so our body is. One should use any insulator if they are in contact of water.

Also one should avoid getting wet while touching electrical appliances because water is also a conductor not pure one though.
