There is no perfect insulator. Air and plastics are, however, examples of good ones.

WHAT DOES A CONDUCTOR AND A INSULATOR MEAN?

An insulator is a material that prevents the passage of electricity. An example is the plastic insulating cover on electrical wires, A conductor is a material that allows electricity to flow. An example is the copper wire used inside electrical cables.

What is a picture for insulator?

A picture for insulator could be a ceramic or glass electrical insulator used on power lines, or a rubber insulator used on electrical wires to prevent electrical conductivity.


What is an example of an insulator?

A2. Insulation is a process of separating one thing from another. Materials for this are called insulators. Commonly we may insulate against the transfer of Heat, Electricity, and Sound or vibration.An Electrical insulator could be glass. Or most plastics.A Heat insulator could be a vacuum, such as in a vacuum flask. Or a loose material such as fibreglass wool.A Sound insulator is normally something of massive properties, such as gypsum wallboard, or concrete.The plastic covering on wire is a perfect example of an insulator.


What does an insulator do to electrical current?

It stops the flow of the electrical current.


Is plasticine a conductor or insulator?

Plastic is an electrical and thermal insulator.


Is aluminum an example of an electrical insulator?
