Default Is drywall an electrical hazard?


"Eigenvector" wrote in message

I know drywall is fire rated, but is it a conductor of electricity?

It's gypsum. Last I checked, the world was not on fire due to gypsum
catching fire and it typically doesn't conduct.


That would be the operable word there - "typically".


Poor choice of words. Gypsum does not conduct electricity. Period. All
the time, No. Operable word: NO
