Usually poorly, especially at room temperature for most of them. The gases do not conduct. Some that are marginally non metals (silicon germanium and graphite) conduct passably well but do not conduct as well as copper or silver.

Non metals do not have easily freed electrons and that is why they do not conduct electricity.
