Silicone can be formulated to be electrically insulative or conductive. Silicone is used as a non-conductive insulation material in wire and cable and also as a semi-conductive insulator in co-extruded cables.

No. Silicone caulk is a polymer containing with a silicon-oxygen backbone, with organic compounds bonded to the silicon. It is not the element silicon, which is a semi-conductor.
