Sure we haven't seen an Alpha getting tied up and electrocuted, but if you look close enough in episode #401 u can see that Araya was kinda shocked to soo Scott breaking off his chains. And since Araya wanted to know what kind of Alpha Scott was, she did the "test" as she put it, and wanted to see if he would pass it. Afterwards, when she gave them a guide (Braeden) she said that she now knew what kind of Alpha he was. And about the turning part, she said it was his "next step". And throughout the series, it is said that werewolf starts to lose his/hers powers in steps when more and more elctricity is steadily applied into his/hers chains. So, no werewolf should have been able to break free from those chains, but given Scott's "force of will" that made him an Alpha the first place, he may be able to overcome it with great concentration and effort, much like with the Mountain Ash barrier.
