Why NaOH or NaCl do not conduct electricity?

NaCl does conduct electricity, but in the an aqueous form or when melted because the bonds holding Na+ and Cl- ions together are dissociated by either the polar nature of water, or by the heat provided to cause melting. The same happens with NaOH, except the ions are Na+ and OH-.

When NaH is added to water the hydroxide concentration increases what can you include about NaOH?

The premise of this question is incorrect. When NaOH is added to water the hydroxide concentration increases. NaOH is a base. If a substance decreases hydroxide concentration it would be an acid.
