Conductor (Automotive)

A material that permits easy flow of electrons.

Conductor (Classical Music)

One who directs a group of performers. The conductor indicates the tempo, phrasing, dynamics, and style by gestures and facial expressions.

Conductor (Construction)

In architecture, a drain pipe leading from the roof; in electricity, anything that permits the passage of an electric current.

Conductor (Drugs)

LSD

Conductor (Electric Motors)

A material, such as copper or aluminum, which offers low resistance or opposition to the flow of electric current.

Conductor (Electric Power)

A wire or combination of wires not insulated from one another, suitable for carrying electric current.

Conductor (Energy)

Metal wires, cables, and bus-bar used for carrying electric current. Conductors may be solid or stranded, that is, built up by a assembly of smaller solid conductors.

Conductor (Import Cars)

Any material that will conduct an electrical charge or any material with less than three electrons in its valance shell.

Conductor (Opera)

The conductor controls the orchestra and the entire musical production by means of gestures, which indicate the beating of time, the ensuring of correct entries, the shaping of individual phrasing and the changes in dynamics (or volume of sound). In an opera, the conductor is the musical director whose function is to co-ordinate the singers and chorus on stage with the orchestra. The conductor determines the tempos (how fast or slow the music is played) as well as the style and shape of the performance.

Conductor (Roofing)

(1) In roofing, a pipe for conveying rain water from the roof gutter to a drain, or from a roof drain to the storm drain; also called a leader, downspout, or downpipe. (2) In electrical contracting, a wire through which a current of electricity flows, better known as an electric wire.

Conductor (Solar Energy)

The material through which electricity is transmitted, such as an electrical wire, or transmission or distribution line.

Conductor (Spiders)

A semi-membranous structure in the male palp which supports and guides the embolus in insemination.

Conductor (Transistors)

Any material that easily allows the flow of electricity. Metals are good conductors. Such materials conduct electricity because electrons can move from one atom of a conductor to the next, forming an electric current.

Conductor (Uk Power)

A substance or body, usually in the form of a wire, cable, or busbar, that allows a current of electricity to pass continuously along it

Conductor (Wire)

A wire or combination of wires not insulated from one another, suitable for carrying an electric current.
