A material which does not usually conduct electricity. Air, for example is an insulator. Insulators have a very high (ideally infinite) resistance. Given a suitably high voltage, insulators can be forced to conduct - take for example lightning during a thunderstorm. See also conductors and semi-conductors

Any poor conductor of heat, sound, or electricity. Most substances lacking free (mobile) electrons, such as non-metals, are electrical or thermal insulators that resist the flow of electricity or heat through them. Plastics and rubber are good insulators. Usually, devices of glass or porcelain, called insulators, are used for insulating and sup...
