Distilled water, if properly distilled, will not contain any ions, so it should not conduct an electric current. Water from a well will undoubtedly have many minerals and metals and salts, etc. in it because these will have been leached out of the ground. The ions that are present in well water will support the conduction of an electric current.

What conducts electricity when mixed with water?

Water in general is a good conductor of electricity. Anything wet will therefore be a good conductor (this makes it dangerous to get certain things wet).Actually, pure (distilled) water is not a good conductor; the fact that water usually IS a good conductor is due to diverse substances dissolved in water, such as salts - the ions make the water a good conductor.
