Static
Hydroelectricity.
No. Electricity pylons (usually called "transmission towers" in the US) are basically just supports for the wires. They are specifically designed to be insulated from the electricity flowing through the wires.
Electricity generated from running water is called hydroelectric power. This renewable energy source harnesses the kinetic energy of flowing water, typically from rivers or dams, to produce electricity. Hydroelectric power is one of the most widely used forms of renewable energy globally.
The device that senses the current flowing and trips the circuit to cut off electricity is called a Residual Current Device (RCD) or Residual Current Circuit Breaker (RCCB). It detects imbalances between the live and neutral wires, which can indicate a leakage current, and disconnects the circuit to prevent electric shock or fire hazards.
Yes, electricity is wasted if a socket is switched on but not being used because the electricity is still flowing through the circuit even though no device is drawing power.
Flowing electricity is called electric current.
. . is called static electricity.

Electricity flowing through a wire is called an electric current. This current is the movement of electric charge carriers, such as electrons, through the wire in a specific direction.
Hydroelectricity.
An insulator prevents electricity from flowing.
The flowing of electricity (amperage) is governed by the internal resistance of the connected device.
The electricity that is not flowing is called static electricity. It occurs when electric charges build up on the surface of an object, often due to friction, and remain in place until they are discharged. This phenomenon can lead to sparks or shocks when the stored energy is released.
Energy produced by flowing water is called hydroelectric energy or hydropower. This renewable energy source is generated by harnessing the kinetic energy of moving water to produce electricity.
Your question is unclear. To prevent electricity flowing you open the circuit. This can be done by disconnecting it from the source by a switch, for example. An insulator will also prevent electricity flowing.
