Q

Insulators

A

The materials or substances that resist or don’t allow the current to pass through them
They are, in general, solid in nature. Often, in a number of systems, insulators are used as they do not allow heat to flow. Some good examples of insulators are wood, fabric, glass, mica, and quartz. Insulators provide protection against fire, sound, and, of course, electricity transmi
