An object that does not conduct electricity is referred to as an insulator. Insulators are materials that have high electrical resistance and do not allow electric current to flow through them easily. Examples of insulators include rubber, glass, and plastic.


What stops the flow of electricity by switching off the current if it gets too high?

what switches a current of electricity if it gets to high is that it overloads a system (which is called a surge (if sudden)) also if you do it manually it is the disruption in the circuit that stops the flow of electricity entirely.


What called the flow of electricity?

The flow of electricity is called the current. It is measured in Amps (I).Current is the flow of electrons around an electrical circuit.
