Best Answer

1. Run a wire from a battery to a lightbulb or something that measures electric current.

2. Connect a wire to the other part of the lightbulb/electric current measuring thing.

3. Connect a wire to the other part of the battery.

4. Connect the unused ends of the wires to the test substance or to each other for the control.

If the lightbulb is bright or if the electric current measuring thing gives a similar result to the control, then the substance is a good conductor.
