does rope conduct electricity?

If I'm betting your life on it, the answer is a definite no.
If I'm betting my life on it, the answer is a 99.9% no.

is the rope wet? then yes it will. otherwise no if it's hemp or nylon

Under the right conditions, almost anything will conduct electricity.
Assuming household voltages and scenarios, it's possible, especially
if the rope is wet and you are standing on soil outside your house.
Posting this a few hours after your OP. Hope you're still around to
read this.

Yes, but in the case of a wet rope, it is the water that is conducting
the electricity, not the rope. Rope, assuming it is not wire rope,
which is a different animal, ain't going to conduct electricity (he
says, not having to presently worry about electrocuting himself with a
piece of rope)...

Ya got it all wrong, pablum...you supposed to
tie the rope around your NECK....NOT shove it into
the toaster and throw it into the hottub!...do I have to
do EVERYthing around here!

The surface is the part that will conduct given
sufficient EMF (Electro Motive Force aka Voltage).
I wouldn't suggest taking many risks with kind of
EMF needed to force even wet rope to conduct.
And getting a good jolt of three phase will ruin
your whole day.

With thirty-three years as a working electrician, I stand by what I
wrote: pretty much *anything* will conduct electricity, given the
right circumstances. Even a bone-dry rope. Even one of the best
insulators used around the world, air.
If I told you 'bout all that went down, it would burn off both of your
ears. There ain't much in your day-to-day life that beats electricity
for weird "accidents" and incidents resulting in heat/fire/explosion.
"It can't happen" doesn't seem to apply consistently with electricity
and humans.
The advice I gave him could save your life. Given a wet rope, the
water is the path of conductivity, yes. But that's the wrong answer to
a practical question.

If it's tied around your neck you'll be perfectly safe from electricity.

Sounds like that tree down in your drive was closer to the wires than I
thought at first sight.

Yeah buddy. The power company trimmed off what was directly on the
lines yesterday. But when I went to drop the rest of it today, it
became obvious that more would touch as they came down. That was a bad
realization to come to halfway through a 24" walnut trunk. :(
But it all turned out well. I cleared everything in front of that
trunk, put a rope on it, and pulled it in the opposite direction with
a truck.
Chainsaws... trees... electrical lines... all that adds up to an easy
way to get killed.

Not really. In most cases you won't *see* the stray
electric current that will get you until it's much too
late.

And you give me shit because I used the wrong spelling for
"compliment"
You're a fucking idiot. As Larry said, ANYTHING can conduct
electricity. Call the power company if you're not already dead you
moron

finally got that cleared up.
