WHAT IS INSULATERS?
An insulator is anything that inhibits the transmission of energy (kinetic, and visible light and other electromagnetic radiation) from one place to another.
             In electrical usage, an insulator prevents discharge from an electrical wire or system.
    In environmental controls, an insulator (insulation and weather stripping) is a material that prevents the movement of heat, keeping warm areas warm and cool areas cool.
