Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that graphite is a good conductor of electricity?

Yes. Multiple reference and textbook sources state directly that graphite is a good conductor of electricity, and a scholarly source calls graphite a very good electrical conductor. One paper describes graphite as an imperfect conductor relative to metals, which qualifies rather than contradicts the claim.
