    It is because most carbon compounds form covalent bonds and do not have free electrons, as all the electrons are used in making the covalent bonds. Also, carbon compounds do not dissociate into free ions in aqueous solution and therefore are not able to conduct electricity. Therefore they are poor conductors of electricity.
