Difference Between Conductor and Insulator:
(i) Conductors can pass the heat and electricity but the insulators are not capable of doing this.
(ii) The conductors are having the free electrons which are the reason behind their ability to be the conductor. While the insulators are not having the free electrons so they are not having this ability as well.
(iii) Metals are commonly the conductors. While the Non-metals are generally the insulators.
(iv) Conductors are commonly used to make the wires and electrical circuits. While the insulators are used for much more purposes than the conductors, such as electrical wires are coated with the insulator materials.
(v) Examples of the conductors are iron and copper etc. While examples of the insulators are the wood and rubbers etc.
