These weapons have a blue lighting sign in the inventory menu.
Blue numbers will come off enemies if they are impacted by electrical damage. Electrical damage is like other elemental damage in the game in this is causes damage over time. The enemy does not have to die as a result of the elemental damage however.
You can check your electrical kill count in the challenge menu, go to the quest screen and press Y.
You can also use barrels for this achievement. Electrical barrels are blue.

Shock weapons can be identified by the blue lightning symbol in your inventory (similar to the trophy art image). You can also do shock damage by shooting the blue barrels.
When you use a shock weapon, blue numbers will appear around an enemy to indicate that you are causing shock damage.

Simply kill 25 enemies with a shock weapon. See "Master Exploder" for more details.

You won't start getting shock weapons until you level up to approx level 7 and can be recognised by the Blue Lightning Bolt symbol on the bottom right of the item description. Shock Weapons are great against shields and fair against flesh but pretty hopeless against armour. Don't bother trying to kill Skags with shock weapons as it’s a futile gesture. Stick to killing Bandits and other low level enemies instead. Environmental damage from the Blue barrels that are scattered throughout the game also count towards this trophy.
