Get some tubing from the hardware store or cable covers. (Looks better than
the duct tape I used when mine were kittens. Worked though, I bundled
anything hanging together, and any thing laying I taped down to the floor).
You can try apple bitter on them, but to me, the safest thing to do (and it
does tidy it all up) is to encase them.

My adopted feral, TK, started doing this several months ago, but I didn't
notice him doing it. One day he was under a corner table in the den (out
of sight...but I was in the room) suddenly I hear ... bang...bang under the table
as he jumped up and hit the bottom of the table. Then he came running out,
wide eyed, turned around and stared at the table. Yup, he bit through the lamp
cord.
That ended the problem with him chewing cords. I replaced that cord, and two
others that I found tooth marks in.
I don't advise that you let him chew cords, but if he/she does bite through, the
problem should take care of itself.
And BTW, the risk of electrocution is virtually 0%....unless the cat is somehow
grounded. The current will flow in one tooth and out the other and never go
anywhere near the heart. Must be a real good tingle though.
For all my other cats, a loud..stern .. NO eventually did the job.
Unfortunately, I have no other advise.

What we did was to get some clear plastic tubing available at most any hardware
store.  Then we slit in lengthwise and stuffed the cords inside.

Cover wires with automotive vacuum hosing; very strong thick walls nearly
impossible to bite through (designed to withstand very high engine temps),
very flexible, comes in very long lengths - sold by the foot or yard, easy
to cut to size, large assortment of inside diameters permits covering single
wires or bundling several wires, and the hosing tastes absolutely horrible.

No need to unplug wires, simple slice the hose lengthwise on one side and
slip over the wires. Your wire-biting problem is solved.
