Insulators. This group consists of rubber, glass, plastic & many other materials.
Mankind will never f*cking know
Note that "electricity" doesn't flow, only current does, which is one aspect of electricity, does. Current is the flow of electrons. A conductor. It lets heat and electrical current easily.
The conduct of electricity
Electricity is the name given to the flow of electrons. Conventionally, the electrons flow from the negative terminal to the positive. An individual electron does not make the whole trip instantaneously - an electron moves on to an atom, which then has an excess of charge, and the spare electron is passed on to the next atom, and so on.electrons are charged particles and the flow of these electrons constitute electricity.

A substance that lets electricity flow through it is called a conductor (or sometimes, to be more explicit, it is called an electrical conductor). Substances which do not permit the flow of electricity are called insulators.

An insulator is a material that stops or reduces the flow of electricity.
electric conductor They are called conductors of electricity. Electricity is the flow of charge. Solid conductors contain free electrons that carry the charge. Liquid conductors contain ions that carry the charge.

I guess you mean, between a battery and something else.The generic name for materials which allow an electric current to flow through is "conductor". Specific examples include any metal, graphite, ions in a water solution.
