Wood is an insulator.

Explanation: Conductors are those substances which allow heat and electricity to pass through them.Example: Metals

Insulators are those substances which do not allow heat and electricity to pass through them. Example: wood

Pots and pans should be made of conducting material as the heat needs to be transferred from the burner to the pot and then to the food for cooking.

But the handles should be made from insulators so that they do not become hot and thus we can hold the utensil using the handles without getting burnt.
