That's the power steering tensioner. While it is common for the bearing to go and make odd squeaking noises, it shouldn't be affected by electrical loads.
Another common source of belt issues and squealing is the crank pulley falling apart.
I found someone selling the tensioner pulley and crank pulley together at a reasonable price (along with the 2 belts), so I will try changing both when I get a chance. Hopefully that will resolve it.
