Pure water does not conduct electricity. Unfortunately once you put conductors like copper into the water the metal begins to dissolve very slightly, enough to eventually conduct.
Most pure oils are very good insulators. Again, the operative word here is pure.

The liquid that conduct electricity are solutions of acid bases and salts in water.
For example: Solution of sulphuric acid ,hydrochloric acid in water conduct electricity.
Vinegar contains acetic acid and lemon juice contain citric acid also conduct electricity. A solution of sodium hydroxide ,potassium hydroxide or base in water conduct electricity.
Copper sulphate ,common salt also conduct electricity.
There are differences in the conduction of electricity by solids and liquids.
