Is a wood log a insulator or an conductor?

Answer 1

Wood in itself is an insulator. But when wet, the water particles can conduct electricity.. Hence wet wood will be a conductor, although not a very good conductor, since the current passes only through a very small area

Answer 2

A wood log is an insulator because it does not conduct electricity well. Wood is made of non-metallic materials that do not have free electrons to carry electric charge through the material.

Answer 3

Wood is an insulator. However wet wood can carry a small amount of electricity but is the water that is the actual conductor in this case.

Answer 4

A conductor because there is moisture in them.

Answer 5

Wood is an insulator and not a conductor like metal would be.

Answer 6

Pretty sure that it's a insulator.

Answer 7

an insulator

Answer 8

Somehow a conductor

Answer 9

It is a conductor

Answer 10

Insulator.
