Obviously if we put live electricity in the sea, the whole ocean wouldn’t then become dangerous with it. At what point does the electricity stop? What stops it?

There are a lot of variables.
For starters, pure water almost isn’t conductive. The more minerals/salt dissolved, the more conductive.
Secondly, the voltage would heavily impact the distance too.
This is one of those questions you would put in a physics class after like 2-4 days of studying the relevant math.
