The issue is related to proxy configuration. Based on this answer, you can try the following.
First, try to remove if there exists your initial config:
npm config rm proxy
npm config rm https-proxy
And optionally if needed, try to set your proxy config
npm config set proxy proxy-url
npm config set https-proxy proxy-url

Removing the proxy and https-proxy worked for me, just in case there is another person with a similar situation. just enter the following in your terminal:
npm config rm proxy
npm config rm https-proxy

I tried everything but it seems I was using CENTOS which allowing me to install electron. I got help from FlashJonas: and tried installing electron again and it was installed as expected.
sudo npm install electron -g --verbose --unsafe-perm=true
