Dielectric Breakdown
A dielectric is a material with low electrical conductivity and so is classified as an insulator. Dielectric materials are used to block the flow of electricity through them, allowing them to behave as an insulators. They can also be used to store electr…

Step 1

Conductor: 

- Conductor can simply be defined as the entity that offers minimum resistance to the flow of electrical current in a circuit.

- Choice of conductor material mainly depends upon the resistivity of the material and the cost of material.
