Tap water consists of some essential minerals due to which conduction of current passes through this medium.
Distilled water on the other hand, doesn't have any mineral for conducting electricity. It is deprived of all minerals.
For electricity to pass on, Conducting medium is required. Hence Tap water conducts electricity and distilled water doesn't conduct electricity.
Hope it helped !
