Answer:

with lower conductivity outside the cord.

Step-by-step explanation:

Electrical conductivity is the property of a material which determines how much it can conduct the electric charges across it.

Good electric conductors are used to make electric wires like copper. Usually, a material with low conductivity that is poor conductor of electricity, is used to coat the electric wire to avoid accidental damage like plastic.
