Insulator:
An insulator is amaterial that resists the flow of electick current.An insulating mateial has atoms with tightly bonded valance electrons.These materials are used in parts of electrical equipment to support or separate electrgcal conductors without passing current through themeselves.The term is also used more specifically to refer to insulating supports that attch electric power transmission wires to utility poles or pylons. Some materials such as glass, paper or Teflon are very good elctrical insulators.
CONDUCTOR:
A conductor is a material which contains movable electric charges.In metalic conductors,such as copper or almuniam, the movable charged particles are electrons. positive charges may also be mobile in the form of atoms in a lattice that are missing electrons, or in the form of ions, such as in the electrolyte of battery.
