We achieve a comprehensive understanding of the magnetic excitations observed by electric spin resonance and far-infrared spectroscopy in a frustrated spin gap system SrCu2(BO3)2 by considering the effects of magnetoelectric couplings and Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interactions in the Shastry-Sutherland model. The transitions from the dimer singlet ground state to the triplon and the bound states of two triplons are electroactive through the magnetoelectric couplings, even in the Shastry-Sutherland Heisenberg model. The results indicate that an electro-triplon and a novel electroactive magnetic excitation, as with an electromagnon in the multiferroics, can be realized in the conventional spin-gapped singlet and anomalous spin-liquid states. Clarifying these electroactive magnetic excitations in various spin systems will help analyze a broad range of quantum magnets, {\it e.g.}, quantum spin liquids and spin nematics.
