Help!!! Everything Metal In My Apartment Shocks When You Touch It by Nobody: 2:05pm On May 20, 2017
I went to the market this morning and in my absence, Ikeja Electricity Distribution Company restored electricity supply. I however noticed that anything metal in the apartment now shocks whenever you touch it. From the kitchen sink, the tap in the sink, the taps in the bathrooms, the shower switch and even the doors.

I have cut off the electricity supply to the apartment but I'm still experiencing the electric shocks.

Please who can tell me what is wrong and what can be done?

The grounding (earthing) of the apartment mains needs to be checked

I suspect earthing problem. Get an electrician to check the point at which mains supply gets into your house. The earth/ground might have lost continuity or lost contact.

Stop scaring him for nothing. A solution has been proffered. Check through the thread. It is a simple connection/disconnection fault.

I've experienced it before. We couldn't wash plates in the kitchen sink without wearing a pair of Dunlop slippers if not we'll experience the shock. Call an electrician to come check it. That was how we solved ours.
