A material used for electrical wiring would need to be a good ____
A
element
B
insulator
C
conductor
D
compound
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Copper is a good conductor of electricity as it allows the electricity to flow through it easily. Copper as a connecting wire has very low electrical resistance.

Detailed explanation-2: -Metals like copper, iron, gold, aluminum, and silver are the best materials for conducting electricity.

Detailed explanation-3: -A conductor is at the center of any wire and cable. They are mostly made of metal due to metal’s high conductivity. Some metals, however, are more conductive than others. Aluminum, copper, and high-strength alloys are the main materials you’ll find at the center of your wire and cable.

Detailed explanation-4: -Copper. One of the most commonly used metals to conduct electricity is copper. As a material, copper is pliable, easy to wrap or solder, which makes it the best choice when large amounts of wiring are needed. Copper’s core electrical function is related to the transmission of electricity and power generation.
