It wouldn't be a conductor because that would be foolish of engineers to wrap electricity with something that will -conduct- or even amplify the electrical current when you touch it. The answer is D. It insulates the electric cords thus removing a good chance of killing yourself (depending on the appliance, et cetera.)
