[PLUG] [Off-Topic] : laptop hw issue : mild shocks at times

[Abhishek Sharma]

Ankur,

I believe this more of a earthing problem rather than the Power Adapter.

Have you tried connecting it at other places, I also experienced the same
thing but when I would connect my laptop in office where apparantely the
earthing was fine, I didnt feel any electric shock
