Why current cannot pass through insulators?
First of all, because that's the definition of an insulator - a substance that doesn't easily let current pass. As to the mechanism, that has to do with how freely the charge carriers (usually electrons) can move.
What does not carry an electrical current?
An electrical insulator.
What material does not transfer current easily?
insulator?
A carries electric current easily while an does not?
a insulator
What do you call a material that wont carry an electric current?
An insulator
What happens when a current reaches a conductor?
it is 345678910 fun
What happens to the Peru current as it reaches the equator?
It goes from a cool current to a warm current as it gets closer to the equator.
What does an insulator do to electrical current?
It stops the flow of the electrical current.
What purposes does an insulator serve?
An insulator is used to isolate current carrying components from conductive non current carrying components.
Is a glass tube a insulator or conductor?
It is a insulator. The glass does not have free electrons to flow as current, and the air in the tube is also an insulator.

An electrical insulator.
Material through which a current cannot pass or easily flow?
Insulator. Like wood.
Is sodium chloride is a good insulator of electric current?
Yes Sodium Chlorine is a good insulator because there is not lose electrons to participate in the current flow
What are the disadvantages of insulators?
One disadvantage of a insulator is that it will not let current flow if you need it to. By the same token one advantage of an insulator is that it will not let current flow if it tries to.
