The main problem with reactive armor is that the machine still needs to have a significant amount of conventional armor protection - it reduces the penetration power of an attack, but doesn't altogether eliminate it. I'm not sure if Knightmare Frames have enough armor to make it worthwhile.

By the way, electric reactive armor is already in prominent evidence in another anime: Gundam Seed's Phase Shift Armor.
