When a voltage is applied to a conductor, the free electrons move through the conductor, creating an electric current. Insulators are made of materials that have very few free electrons. The few free electrons that are present in an insulator are not able to move easily, so an insulator does not allow electricity to flow through it.<\/p>\n<p>Option B is incorrect because an insulator does not have an excessive number of free electrons.
