- dogma1138 10y agoYou are probably connected to poorly grounded socket or a socket where hot and ground were switched. I had a grounding issue and I used to get shocked by my tower all the time, this is pretty common.

They told me I was just being sensitive, despite every flat reporting similar issues. The hot water pipes were being used as the earth, and the electricity could leap across the pipe in bad weather.
