"The purpose of an electrical contact lubricant is to prevent corrosion and lubricate the connection for easier maintenance." - from sanchem.com. Not trying to start a food fight here, but it's the same principle. It's non-conductive. But that's OK. It's either helping to prevent corrosion, or keeping the dirt in suspension to assist in conductivity. I sincerely doubt it is "electrically conductive" all on its own. Results are good conductivity, that's why people have been using it for decades.
