Shock Effect is a prefix that turns up on Main Hand and Relic. It gives Shock Effect: +3% to +4% at its lowest step, +62% to +83% at its best — and you need item level 116 before the best one can appear at all.
It comes up at weight 4 when the game rolls affixes, never doubles up with another affix that does the same job (shockEffect), and it is what puts Tingling, Jolting, Shocking, Electrifying and Fulminating in an item's name — so you might pick up a Tingling Wand.
3 Uniques lock it to a fixed number: The Divided Sky, The Skysplinter Fan and Thunderroc's Halo.
