I don't think you will find many non-electrolytic salts.

Salts are formed by Acid-Base neutralization reaction. There are four possible types of reactants involved based on their dissociation strengths.

i.e.

1.Strong acid and Strong base (Eg HCl and NaOH)

2. Strong acid and weak base (Eg HCl and NH4OH)

3. Weak acid and strong base (Eg HCOOH and NaOH)

4. Both weak acid and base (Eg HCOOH and NH4OH)

In all the cases, neutralization takes place to form salts. And surprisingly, the salts formed i.e., NaCl, NH4Cl,HCOO-Na and H-COO-NH4 respectively, irrespective of the strengths of the reactants are found to be strong electrolytes.
