The CA acts as an insulator, breaking the electrical connection between the wires. Therefore you cannot use super glue on a circuit board. And not only superglue is a bad conductor of electricity, all adhesives are bad conductors.

No, CA glues are not conductive. They’re really just a polymer, just like any other plastic. The bigger concern would be getting glue on the contacts which would prevent a good connection.
The answer is a simple yes. You can glue wires together. One of the most commonly used adhesives is super glue, which is suitable for both temporary and permanent connections. Some superglues are permanent solutions, and you can even use them in place of soldering.
A silver-filled one-part epoxy can achieve the same high conductivity as a similarly filled two-part epoxy. Silver filled polyurethane adhesives – these are coming to market slowly. Because these are two-part adhesives, they either need to be mixed or they come pre-mixed and shipped frozen like the Snap-Cure epoxies.
There is no substitute for soldering. No manufactured glue conducts electricity or holds up like solder.
If you’ve ever brazed or welded, you know it can get pretty hot. MesoGlue wants to fix that. It’s a room-temperature metallic adhesive that lets you glue parts together with ruthless abandon and electrical control.
Gorilla Clear Glue is another high-quality adhesive that is excellent for gluing electronics.
What you need: a roll of electrical tape and two wires with the ends twisted together. First lay the twisted part of the wires on a strip of electrical tape. Wrap the tape tightly around the wires 5-6 times, making sure to cover the entire wire. Pull on your connection to make sure it’s strong.
Three compound types of adhesives are commonly used to hold surface mount segments: acrylic, epoxy, and urethane acrylate.
Copper is a highly conductive, corrosion-resistant, and ductile metal that is easily bonded to acrylic or epoxy resins. Superglue (cyanoacrylate) glue, can be used for gluing copper but would not be the first choice.
Does J-B Weld conduct electricity? No. J-B Weld is not considered a conductor. It’s an insulator.
You might be wondering, “Does superglue work on metal?” It sure does. Superglues are based on ethyl cyanoacrylate. These one-part adhesives are great for creating fast, strong bonds between metal surfaces.
Wire Glue is a water-based electrically conductive adhesive that can be used as a replacement for soldering in all types of indoor and outdoor low voltage and low current electrical connections. Wire Glue provides durability and weather protection from the elements; is chemical and oil resistant.
Just for the record, CA glue (superglue) does not conduct and does not work. While conductive adhesives exist, they are not good conductors and make a high-resistance connection.
The CA acts as an insulator, breaking the electrical connection between the wires. Therefore you cannot use superglue on a circuit board. And not only superglue is a bad conductor of electricity, all adhesives are bad conductors of electricity.
