Conductors and Non-conductors
Some objects can conduct electricity. Some objects cannot conduct electricity.
Objects that CAN conduct electricity are called conductors. These objects are made of metal(logam). When a conductor is connected to a circuit, the bulb will light up.
Objects that CANNOT conduct electricity are called Non-conductors.
Usually they are made of plastic, rubber, wood, glass and cloth. When the Non-conductor is connected to a circuit, the bulb will not light up.
