Electric bulb is basically an insulating device. By calling it an insulating device it does not mean that it completely disallows the flow of electricity! It means that the device or object resists the flow of electricity to some extent. It has a coil of a metal called Tungsten which resists the flow of electricity. Due to this resistance the coil heats up immensely and glows hot. However, this coil of Tungsten does allow some electricity to pass through so that the circuit of electrical flow remains closed/complete and the electric bulb remains lighted.
