Generally, 'insulators' are also called 'dielectrics'. But the term 'insulator' and 'dielectric' really refer to the properties of such materials. 'Insulator' describes the property of opposing current flow (or, strictly speaking, 'not supporting' current flow, due to its relative lack of charge carriers), while 'dielectric' refers to the property of supporting the establishment of an electric field which, in turn, acts to polarise its atoms and establish a (temporary) displacement current whenever a potential difference is first applied (or changed in magnitude).
What else can I help you with?
For an insulating material dielectric strength and dielectric loss should be respectively?
For an insulating material dielectric strength and dielectric loss should be respectively
Is dielectric strength the same as dielectric constant?
No, these are two unrelated properties of a material.
What happens when dielectric breakdown occurs?
The dielectric,usually the insulator between the plates of a capacitor, can be overstressed by the application of too high voltages applied to the capacitor plates. The dielectric breaks down and a current flows between the plates until,either they are discharged, or an equilibrium is reached,below the working voltage of the capacitor. If the dielectric is damaged in this process he capacitor must be replaced. Some dielectric material self heal and can recover from an over voltage.
Is there any material having dielectric constant less than 1?
Yes, these fall in a class called metamaterials.

For an insulating material dielectric strength and dielectric loss should be respectively high or low?
For an insulating material, the dielectric strength should be high to withstand high voltages without breaking down. Conversely, the dielectric loss should be low to minimize energy loss due to internal friction within the material when subjected to an electric field.
What is the dielectric?
Insulation property of a material
Dielectric constant of metal is?
The dielectric constant varies, depending on the material.
What is the term for the flow of electrons through the insulating material of a capacitor?
The term for the flow of electrons through the insulating material of a capacitor is called "dielectric breakdown."
What is the relationship between the wavelength in a dielectric material and the propagation of electromagnetic waves?
The relationship between the wavelength in a dielectric material and the propagation of electromagnetic waves is that the wavelength of electromagnetic waves decreases when they travel through a dielectric material compared to when they travel through a vacuum. This is due to the slower speed of light in the dielectric material, which causes the waves to be compressed and have a shorter wavelength.
Is there any material having dielectric constant less than 1?
Yes, these fall in a class called metamaterials.
What is dielectric material?
A dielectric material is an electrical insulator that can be polarized by an applied electric field. It does not conduct electricity, but it can store electric energy as a result of its polarization. Dielectric materials are commonly used in capacitors to store and release electrical energy.
Can a dielectric be a conductor as well?
No, a dielectric and a conductor are two different types of materials. A dielectric is an insulating material that can store and transmit electric energy, while a conductor is a material that allows electricity to pass through it easily.
