Ionic compound cannot conduct electricity in solid state.
Reason :-
When ionic compounds are in solid state, their ions have huge ionic bond because of the strong electrostatic force of attraction between them, which does not let the ions to move. But when they are in liquid state or dissolved in water, the same force becomes weaker, and makes their ions free to move and hence they conduct electricity.
