    Most AVAILABLE water is conductive.
    and water used around HV gear tends to get 'stuff' in it,
    unless continually 'deionized' or otherwise treated.

    However.

    Really POure Water (difficult to get, hard to keep pure)
    Is a dandy insulator.

    I've mentioned previously the HVDC inverter that
    feeds into the local power grid.  To insulate/cool the
    solid state inverter stacks they use 99.9999ifergethowmany%
    Pure Water.  +/- 500,000VDC...
