Materials that do not conduct electricity are an insulator.
"Conductivity Countdown: Investigating Materials for Electricity Flow"
Conductor are materials that conduct electricity. There are also semiconductors, which conduct electricity but not as well, and superconductors, which conduct electricity without resistance when very cold.
For a material to conduct electricity , it has to be impure , so for example pure silicon cannot conduct electricity but Silicon chips in computers that are mixed with other things can. So the materials that conduct are charged with little particles that allow the flow of electricityBecause of electrolytes. Or because of the metal something is made of.
Materials that conduct electricity well include metals such as copper, aluminum, and silver. In contrast, insulating materials like rubber, plastic, and glass do not conduct electricity. Some fabrics that can conduct electricity are conductive fabrics made by weaving metal threads with conventional fibers.
Metals such as copper, aluminum, and silver are good conductors of heat and electricity. Other materials like graphite and water can also conduct electricity to some extent. Specialized materials like semiconductors can conduct electricity under certain conditions.
Insulator materials will not carry or conduct electricity.

copper, metals...
Usually, yes.
Materials that do not conduct electricity well are Insulating materials, or insulators. Examples include glass, rubber, plastic, air, ceramic, porcelain, dry paper and dry wood. Pure water will not conduct electricity at all.

Superconducters are materials that conduct electricity with little or no resistance.
Metal, specifically, copper
Superconductivity is where there's absolutely zero electrical resistance or magnetic expulsion. Materials that are superconductors conduct electricity much like other materials, but more efficiently.
