Orchestra conductors are important because they keep all the musician in sync and on time with each other.
If you're referring to conductors of electricity, they're important because they let electricity flow.

Is three phase transmission line is example of bundle conductor?
'Bundled' conductors describe a line in which two or more conductors are supported from the same insulator chain. In the UK, 275-kV transmission lines typically use two conductors per line, and 400-kV transmission lines typically use four conductors per line. The purpose of bundling conductors is to spread the electric stress on the conductors (e.g. for four conductors, the same amount of electric flux will be 'shared' between the four conductors, rather than concentrated on the surface of one conductor).
Are the three conductors in a single phase 240v circuit considered to be in parallel?
If the three conductors are in a single cable they physically are positioned parallel in relationship to each other. True parallel conductors are combined to split the current. They have to be of equal length and size so that they split the load current between the two or three or four conductors. Conductors are paralleled so that multiple smaller conductors, which are easier to work with, can carry equally the total load current. To answer the question no, the three conductors in a 120/240 circuit are not considered to be in parallel. All three of these conductors could have a different current being carried by them depending on how the load is distributed.
Do you derate for a three phase line and load conductors in the same conduit?
Yes, there will be a de-rate applied to this type of installation. In the electrical code book the amperage rating of conductors is for allowable ampacities for not more than three copperconductors in raceway or cable. This is based on an ambient temperature of 30 degrees C. If the ambient temperature of the conductors where the raceway is installed is over 30 degrees C the conductor amperages have to be reduced. Where the number of conductors are from 4 to 6 conductors in a raceway, the conductors amperage has to be reduced by .8
Why do electric circuits need to use conductors?
Without conductors, electrons do not flow where you want them to flow. An electrical circuit is a flow of electrons.
Does capacitance exists between two current carrying conductors?
Capacitance exists between any two conductors, current carrying or not.
Why is insulators and conductors important?
because it protects you
What characteristic makes some metals important in electronic devices?
They are conductors
Are electrical conductors and insulators equally important for electricity?
Yes. You need both conductors and insulators to work with electricity. Conductors such as wires provide a path for electricity to move where it is needed and insulators prevent electricity from dissipating, from being where it is not supposed to be and where it can cause harm and damage.
Why is radium and barium good conductors of heat and electricity?
All the metals are good conductors of heat electricity, but the differences between the values are very important.
What is more important insulators or conductors?
Conductors and Insulators. In a conductor, electric current can flow freely, in an insulator it cannot. Metals such as copper typify conductors, while most non-metallic solids are said to be good insulators, having extremely high resistance to the flow of charge through them.
What are conductors insulators and semi conductors and super conductors?
b
Are scissors conductors?
They are Conductors, not much for insulation though. Differences between conductors and insulators? Conductors let energy such as electricity .
Is it true that shield wires conductors located above the phase conductors protect the phase conductors against lightning?
Yes, but they're not 'phase' conductors, they're 'line' conductors.
Why is germanium important?
Germanium has many important uses that relate to science, medicine or even every day life. It is one of the largest used conductors used in transistors.
If ther are more than conductors in the raceway the ampacity of the conductors must be derated?
Ampacity must be derated depending on the number of conductors and the ambient temperature. In the Canadian Electrical Code Table 5C denotes derating for the number of conductors. 1-3 conductors = 100% load 4-6 conductors = 80% 7-24 conductors = 70% 25-42 conductors = 60% 43 or more conductors = 50%
Are metale uaually conductors or insulators?
Metals are conductors.Metals are conductors.Metals are conductors.Metals are conductors.
Why is it important to classify matter into conductors and insulators?
If you didn't know the difference, you might try to wire your house with optical fiber.
