What are these meteorites called? Where can I get them? How much do they cost? Are there more then one kind that are capable of drawing electrical currents around them?

They are mostly rock and metals fused together at hight temperatures. Some are magnetic.
O. Richard Norton wrote several books on Meteorites and they would better answer your questions in details. His wife, Dorothy did the illistrations and she goes out with him to search for meteorites and she goes traveling for lectures with him too.
You an buy meteorites on ebay but be careful that you are getting real ones and not fake ones. His books can tell you how to tell the difference.

Many meteorites are composed partly or mostly of iron and so have a magnetic field that will affect electrical currets near them.

I sell these on a bridge from Manhattan to Brooklyn that I own.
There are meteorite that are magnetic due to the elements in them. Since magnetism is physically related to electricity, your observations may be, in principle, correct, but your description is lousy.
