There are about 3 traps in that area very close together, I just went from one to the other and they will be reset when you come back to the 1st one.

I'm probably just retarded but I've searched that entire area and I can't find ANY electric traps

It must be at a different point in the game, probably before unlocking the safe house.

After a few hours into the game, it will start to become night and an Electric fence trap will spawn at the entrance to the tower in the slums. so wait until night and get a pursuit going. You will have at least one or 2 volatiles chasing after you. keep having them chase you and when you are at the main entrance to the tower, run inside very quickly but still have the zombies right behind you, then activate the fence trap with X. this will also net you the killing a volatile achievement.

For this achievement all you need to do is kill 25 enemies with an electric fence trap.

The easiest method to net this achievement is to wait until you have unlocked the ability to use electric fences (unlocked at Survivor Level 7). Once you have done this you go to various electric fences, go to high ground, throw a firecracker somewhere in the fence to accumulate a group of infected and then activate the fence. I was usually able to get a group of 3-4 infected each time fairly easily, which will get you the required kills in very little time.

Additional help to getting this achievement-
Although this can be done during the day, it's easiest to do this at night (more zombies). There are electric fences that spawn close to safe houses, in this case, go and sleep at the safe house (if its not night time). Sleep until night, and throw firecrackers near the electric fence. If no zombies appear, walk around a little bit until you find a few (usually zombies spawn near or around the electric fence, so this shouldn't be a big problem), after finding these zombies, lead them to the electric fence by either getting close enough so that they follow you, or throw firecrackers in a path. After reaching the fence gate, turn it on and it will electrify the zombies. After the fence gates turn off, return to the safe house and repeat this process during the day. This achievement can be done after reaching survivor rank 7, and its an easy 10 gamerscore! smile

Ok since the patch the only real place I could find and use was around the Tower at the other entrances (maybe there are better areas I'm not sure; HOWEVER, I noticed some of my kills weren't counting much like other people. I believe this has to do if you damage them or not, all the damage needs to come from the Electric Fence so if you kick them, hit them, set them on fire ANYTHING the kill won't count. This is just a theory but I have tried it out and every zombie I killed after hitting them it didn't count and every zombie I didn't hit killed them so take that info however you want.

Otherwise just walk away from the tower, lure some zombies with Firecrackers and them light em up with the Electric Fence. Since the patch and latest update if you don't have the DLC this is pretty much the only place you can get this achievement anymore.

You can unlock the Electric Fence skill at Survivor Rank 7, and it will allow you to tap to activate electric fence traps that attract and shock any zombies that step in the trap. It will kill normal zombies, and has a chance of killing pretty much any other type of zombie depending on how long they stand on the electrified fence. The easiest way to do this is to simply tap each and every time you see the prompt to “activate the electric fence trap”, as you will likely get at least one pretty much every time you activate it.

One option to increase the amount of zombies you kill per trap is to first throw a firecracker or two to get a group of zombies piled onto the fence itself before activating the trap. You can then reset the trap and repeat the process if there are more zombies nearby to electricute.

In order to earn this trophy, you must first learn the "Electric Fences" Survival skill at level 7. This skill will unlock electric fence traps all over the Slums. These fences are usually near safe zones and can be found with an icon on the bottom right screen of your mini map. They're also easy to spot because there's usually a light above the fence, making it easy to see from afar.

Because most of these trophies can only be earned during the night, we will explain in this paragraph on how to earn Electrified!, Blinded by the Lights, and Enlightened! in a single session. Travel to the location in the image below, as this area is a great place to earn these trophies:

After you've travelled to this area, wait until night in the nearest safe zone, then run around the apartment building in circles. You can see the rectangle route just by looking at the map. By doing this you can trigger both the fence trap, and the light traps. While you're being chased during a pursuit, use the Backlash skill with to blind enemies and Volatiles from behind. Not only will this eventually earn you Blinded by the Lights but it will also better your chances at surviving and pushing enemies away from you. This makes it much easier to set enemies up towards the light traps. Keep running through this route until you pass more light traps and press to activate the trap when near one. By then the electric fence should be available again and you will have a ton of zombies that you can lure into it. Remember to always use the Backlash skill with to turn around, followed by using your UV Flashlight with to blind enemies. Keep repeating this until you unlock all three trophies. If you die, don't worry as all of these trophies are cumulative.

Here's an alternative method by Golden69:

There's a Bozak poster challenge in the old town, which is to kill 10 Volatiles. You will be given a Shotgun. This is by far the easiest and quickest method as you will spawn in above a fence, thus making the enemies easy pickings.
