Root Explanation

Multiconductor → It is formed from "multi-" (meaning many) and "conductor" (from Latin "conducere", meaning to lead or bring together). The word "multiconductor" refers to a device or material that can conduct electricity through multiple pathways or channels.

Memory Tip

Think of 'many' ('multi-') pathways for 'leading' ('conducere') electricity — that's what a multiconductor does.
