I don't think either/or limitation makes sense in that case. I would treat it as a new advantage that would be the opposite of Restricted Diet.

"Normal food, plus a specific form of electricity" seems significantly less broad to me than "anything organic that isn't actively toxic" (Universal Digestion), so I'd peg it at around a perk. If you are more adaptable in what sources you can absorb power from, bump that cost up.
