CONDUCTOR: those objects which can pass electricity through them is known as conductors. the conductors can pass electricity through them due to free electrons present in them. for example: iron, copper, aluminium etc.
INSULATOR: those objects which can not pass electricity through them is called insulator. the insulators can't pass electricity due to less or absence of free electrons. for example paper, wood, rubber etc

What is a ground fault?
difference in current between hot and neutral conductors
What is the difference between resistance and insulation?
Resistor is a current a insulator is a not conductive and conductors can conduct.
How do you know the difference between conductors and insulators?
Yes I do, a thermal insulator keeps in the heat
What is the difference between conductive and non-conductive?
Conductive materials: they are good conductors of heat or electricity. Nonconductive materials: they are not good conductors of heat or electricity.
Can there be a potential difference between two conductors that carry like charges of the same magnitude?
no there cant
Difference between solid and stranded conductors?
In a solid conductor there will be only one conductor ,but in stranded conductors there are several conductors twisted together to make a whole conductor ,this is mainly done to increase flexibility of the Conductor .
How do you create a potential difference?
Potential difference arises between two conductors when there is a difference in the charge content between them. So, to create it u can take out or pump in charges, which is the job done by a battery.
The difference between conductors and insulators in how they react to electrical charges?
Expressed that way, it is somewhat confusing. The difference is how well they conduct electrical currents.
What is the difference between metals and nonmetals in regards to how they conduct electricity?
Metals generally are good conductors of electricity, and nonmetals are not.
What is the difference between zebra conductors and panther conductors?
Both the panther and zebra conductors are ACSR ( aluminium conductor steel reinforced). The conductors are named depending on the current and voltage rating requirements. Panther conductors are smaller compared to Zebra conductors. The current carrying capacity at degrees ambient temp of panther is : 482A and for Zebra is 736A. The diameter of panther is 21mm and Zebra is 28.62mm.
What is the difference between insulated wire and ordinary cable?
Insulated wires and cables are commonly used conductors in power engineering
What is the function of wires in transmission line?
Each of the three conductors of an electricity transmission system are termed 'line conductors', and there is a potential difference between each pair, called a 'line voltage'. The conductors themselves carry load currents called 'line currents'.
