Easiest explanation is: there is no electricity in hogwarts and wizards don't have electricians nor electricity generation, so "electricity doesn't work in hogwarts".

If magic was electromagnetic or at least can be measured by effects that it has wizards would have been found during 20th century by general populace.

There are multiple mentions that electronics ALLWAYS malfunctions in presence of magic. So that is a new physical law in disguise. An especially interesting one that interacts with certain intelligence (like mind reading of the user, by the user of other users, memory extraction and manifestation in sentient beings).

Sentient Electromagimagnetic field confirmed?

Or that can be a bullshit by uninformed wizards with superiority complex, they have like 5 years of mandatory education. And most don't interact with anyone but magical people in their enclaves.
