An insulator is a material that resists the flow of electric current or heat. Common examples include rubber, glass, and certain plastics, which are often used to protect against electrical shocks or to keep heat contained in thermal applications. In the context of electricity, insulators prevent unwanted current flow, ensuring safety and efficiency in electrical systems. In thermal applications, they help maintain temperature by reducing heat transfer.
