It was Godzilla that replaced Frankenstein, so Kong being given electrical abilties because he replaced Frankenstein doesn't make any sense. Besides, in the original King Kong vs Frankenstein story, the Ginko (The giant monster that Frankenstin creates) didn't have electrical abilties.

As for why Kong has electrical abilties? Who knows. Maybe its because Kong is a giant gorilla God, and you aasociate Gods with lightning/lightning bolts (Thor, Zeus, etc.) or maybe they got the idea from this publicity photo of Kong from 1933.
