Properties of Common Insulating Materials | Wiring | Electrical Engineering

An insulator is a substance possessing such enormous resistance that practically it does not permit electricity to flow through it. Electrons can be removed from the atom of any insulator with great difficulty. The outer electrons can be detached from their parent atoms when, in comparison with a conductor, considerably high amount of voltage is applied. Amongst the good insulators [...]

Conducting Materials of a Conductor | Wiring | Electrical Engineering

Every material offers a certain amount of opposition to the flow of electricity through it. Resistance may be defined in a general way as that property of a body which opposes the flow of electricity. A conductor is a substance of such small resistance that it readily allows electricity to flow through it. The best conductors Eire carbon and metals, [...]
