Looks more like electrical conduit, but I appreciate the pun
No that definitely looks more like a copper pipe than conduit which is typically PVC, steel, zinc… basically nothing that could be confused with copper.
They should make all electrical conduit out of copper so if there's a short in one of the wires it'll still conduct all the way to where it needs to be.
Conduit is commonly conductive. And where conductive should be grounded.
Having the conduit itself be a power transmitting medium would be dangerous as people could touch the live circuit and injure themselves. But you could insulate the conduit making it safe, and essentially turning the conduit/wire inside into a coaxial "cable"...... this would have interesting implications for signal transmission.
I work with electricity. I was making a joke.
Anyone bending conduit with kinks like that hates everyone who has to pull the cable through conduit.
