6. Electrical Field 1991

As to their conductivity for electrical current, the various substances are divided into conductors, non-conductors

2. Fundamental Quantities of Electrical Engineering 1991

Substances in which the charge carriers are fixed or stationary, that is to say, they are not freely mobile, are called non-conductors or insulators.

2. Fundamental Quantities of Electrical Engineering 1991

Electrical phenomena also occur in non-conductors.

6. Electrical Field 1991

These electrons move freely in so-called conductors and thus produce an electrical current, whereas in non-conductors their movement is apparent through electrical resistance.
