EN: electric
This is the adjective form you barely hear anymore, like the 'donna' to the 'don' of electricity words. You might find it in an old physics book: 'silya elektrika' (electric chair) or 'gitarang elektrika' (electric guitar). Nowadays, we just say 'electric' chair or 'electric' guitar.
From Spanish "eléctrica" (feminine form of "electric").
This is a dated, formal adjective. In modern Tagalog, it is much more common to use the English word "electric" or phrases like "de-kuryente" (powered by electricity).
