Metals have the ability to conduct electricity.

Metals are lustrous, malleable, ductile and are good conductor of heat and electricity.

They conduct electricity because the electrons in metal are delocalized electrons and are free moving electrons so when they gain energy (heat) they vibrate more quickly and can move around, this means that they can pass on the energy more quickly.
