Dielectric
A non-conducting material that can be polarized by an external electric field, commonly used as an insulating material between conducting surfaces.
Metal Conductors
Materials that allow the flow of electrical current due to their free electron movement.
Insulating Material
Materials that hinder the flow of electric current, used to protect against electrical shocks and to contain electrical wiring.
