That is incorrect. Even tap water will conduct electricity.
## But absolutely pure water doesn't and "suspended" solids [colloids] in
tap water don't either.
A TDS meter is a total "dissolved" solids meter, stuff in
"solution"..like ions...that DO conduct electricity "in" water.
A TDS meter ...IS... an EC meter.
The water itself, does not conduct electricity.
The introduction of electricity may produce Hydroxyl OH anions and
Hydronium H3O ions, that do conduct electricity "in" water.....but *that*
is no longer "water"
Hydronium ions are the combination of H+ ions and H2O molecules, i.e.. H+
+ H2O
It's the ions and anions that transport electrons [electrical current] by
way of the electrochemistry that makes some of that nonconductive water
into something else, dissolved "in" the water.
