    Explanation:

    The electric field inside a conductor is always zero if the charges inside the conductor are not moving.

    Since the electron are not moving then they must be in electrostatic equilibrium which means the electric field inside the conductor is zero. if the electric field existed inside the conductor then there will be net force on all the electrons and the electrons will accelerate.
