distilled water is steam condensate obtained by distillation, with a low content of non-volatile salts, but its quality depends on the equipment and storage.

What does distilled water mean in practice?

After condensation, it has few non-volatile salts, but may contain volatile compounds and impurities from the equipment and container.

When does it matter?

It is not automatically sterile and changes conductivity rapidly upon contact with air.

Which solutions are related to it?

Quality is judged by application, controlling for conductivity and storage purity rather than based solely on name.
