∙ 10y agoAll metals conduct electricity.
The most common is copper. It is a reasonable conductor and is economic, price wise.
Aluminium is used for long distance, overhead wires due to it's lightness.
Gold is a very good conductor and does not tarnish, so is sometimes plated onto contacts.
Carbon is not a brilliant conductor, but it can be printed and painted onto circuit boards, for mass production and miniaturization. Suitable only for low voltage and current, used in electronics, such as remote controls.
Silver can also be used in paints, also for circuit boards and printing on glass, such as heated rear windows.

∙ 8y agoCopper is the most commonly used due to reasonably high conductivity, moderate cost, and the fact
that its oxide is conductive and easily sloughs off.
