Distilled Water: Pure water condensed from steam.
Conductivity: A material's ability to transfer an electrical charge through the material to another destination.
Pure Water: Water containing no ions or particles, excellent insulator, poor conductor.
Ionic Compounds: A chemical compound comprising ions held together by electrostatic forces
Ions: An atom or molecule with a net electric charge caused by the loss or gain of electrons.
Anions: A negatively charged ion.
Cations: A positively charged ion.
Electrically neutral: Without a net charge.
Faucet: A device by which a flow of liquid or gas from a pipe or container can be controlled; a tap.

Humans often in the past have pumped their sewage and storm water into many rivers due to this conductivity may increase or decrease depending on that is being added to the water.

This means that typically fresh water from rivers, streams, etc. has a high conductivity rate.  This leaves aquatic life in danger of possible damage due to electrical shock from lightning or discarded electronics.

If the water conductivity is high in the water in your home the only problem is that it is a good conductor so watch out in the bathroom or during a thunderstorm
