A good electric contact material should have all of the following properties except_____________?

Correct answer: A. high resistivity

  • A. high resistivity
  • B. high resistance to corrosion
  • C. good thermal conductivity
  • D. high melting point

Explanation

A good electrical contact should have low resistivity so that it produces little voltage drop and heating. Corrosion resistance, good thermal conductivity, and a high melting point are desirable properties.
