Hello guys!
I am experiencing a weird situation with my laptop.
I am using a newly bought Automatic Voltage Regulator rated for 1000 watts (Panther Brand with time delay).
I just noticed that when the I keep the AVR turned off but connected to the main electric wall socket, and then touch the edges of my laptop screen which is metal, I get mild electric shocks.
This does not happen when:
1. I disconnect the AVR from the wall socket
2. The AVR is completely turned on
3. The laptop adapter is disconnected from the laptop
4. Using another AVR and performing same steps to try reproducing the issue
5. If I wear rubber slippers and my feet does not touch the floor
I find it weird because the AVR seem to function fine but I get shocked only when it is plugged in to a wall socket, while it is turned off.
I suspected first that my laptop might have the issue but as stated above, it does not happen on the other AVR I have.
I was hoping someone here might know what exactly is going on as I just cannot figure it out myself.
Thanks in advance!
