Some cardiac cells are self-excitable, contracting devoid of any signal from the nervous system. Each of these cells have their own inherent contraction rhythm. A section of the human heart called the sinoatrial node, or pacemaker, sets the rate and timing that all cardiac muscle cells contract. The SA node generates electrical impulses, from the SA node spreading rapidly through the walls of the artria, causing both artria to contract in unison. The impulses also pass to another section of specialized cardiac muscle tissue, a convey point called the atrioventricular node AV bundle or artioventricular bundle or Bundle or His. This collection of heart muscle cells are also specialized for electrical conduction that transmits the electrical impulses from the AV node to the point of the apex of the fascicular branches. The fascicular branches then lead to the Purkinje fibers then conduct the signals to the apex of the heart along and throughout the ventricular walls. The Purkinje fibers form conducting pathways called bundle branches.
They are composed of specialized cardiac muscle.
Neural tissue also known as nervous tissue.
No, epithelial tissues do not conduct impulses.
Nervous System
The nervous system conducts electrical signals from one structure to another. For example from the brain to the muscles for movement.
Nerve cells, neurons, are designed to conduct electrical impulses, passing messages between the nerves and other tissues. For example, one impulse is sent to the brain signaling pain when you burn your hand and than another message telling your hand to move off the stove.
the job of the nervous tissue is that it is to react to stimuli and is to conduct impulses to various organs in the human body.

Nervous System
to receive and conduct electrochemical impulses
Nervous tissues are notorious for conducting the electrical as well as chemical impulses. The later occurring at synapsis which is the cleft between the connection of two nerve endings. Also heart cells can conduct electrochemical impulses.

Muscle tissue cannot conduct nerve impulses from one neuron to the other. Moreover, skeletal muscle tissue cannot even pass impulses between themselves and they should be stimulated by single branches of neurons. However, cardiac muscle cells has the unique ability to conduct impulses between themselves through gap junctions.

When something is said to be conductive it means electricity or heat can pass through it. Metal and copper are very conductive materials as well as solder.
