Answer:

Because sugar has no ions in the solution

Explanation:

Pure water contains very few ions, so it does not conduct electricity very well. When table salt is dissolved in water, the solution conducts very well, because the solution contains ions. When sugar is dissolved in water, the solution does not conduct electricity, because there are no ions in the solution.

In basic words the more ions in the solution there is a better chance to conduct electricity.
