How effective is brass a conductor of electricity?
It isn't. In terms of volume, silver is best, followed by copper, then aluminum. Aluminum is 2X better conductivity by weight than anything else. Brass is an alloy of copper and zinc, and their proportions can be varied to create different brasses.

There is a common brass known as "electrical brass" that is commonly used for electrical conductor parts, and it's chief virtues are that it can be worked easily and is not expensive.
