As far as I am concerned, copper is known as a good and cheap conductor of electricity. Although there are some other elements, such as silver, with higher conductivities copper is preferred due to its being rather cheap. Sometimes because of weight considerations, aluminum is also used even though it has a lower conductivity compared to copper.
