Hello everyone, you guys were right, I contacted my electrician and there was something wrong with my electrical grounding and has been sorted! Thank you all very much!

Yeah we use 220V. As you can see here, these are the plugs we use. Thank you for your suggesting I'll try it out once I got the proper tools but I'll have to talk with my electrician about grounding. But since I got this issue, do you think it'll harm any computer components and would it still be safe to use the PC?

Yep I've checked but couldn't find any unfortunately.

In Thailand there are 4 sorts of plugs. If you're from the EU you wouldn't even need an adapter because they would work anywhere in Thailand.

Thanks for the answer I see what you mean. I will have my electric installation checked out.

Thank you for your answer I think I'll have much electrical installation checked out. Also in the picture below is the plug that came with the PSU so it doesn't have that third GND pin like in your picture. Do you think because of this issue that it is dangerous to use the PC? And would it damage any hardware?

Hello everyone, I just finished building my gaming PC and noticed I'm getting shocked when I touch some metal parts of peripherals which is plugged in. I first wanted to plug in my headset at the back of my motherboard, there are two jacks one for mic and one for audio. When I inserted one of the two I wanted to insert the next one. I touched it by the audio jack (the metal part) and it shocked me. The longer I hold on to it the longer it'll shock me. The same thing happened when I wanted to plug in the antenna to my motherboard for the WiFi thing (I've got a Z390) I've read so many things on the internet that I should take everything apart again and put it back together, that there is something wrong with electricity wires in my house and I don't know what else. To answer some common questions you guys might ask, I'll answer them for you. I've got no carpets or anything static near me I live in Thailand so the weather here is humid The PC is standing on a wooden table My PC and monitor are both plugged in a power extension cord My specs: RTX 2080 MSI Gaming X Trio intel i7 8700 16 GB of RAM Thermaltake 750W PSU Asus ROG Strix Z390 Also can someone tell me what "grounding" means? I've read it on all different kind of posts but I couldn't a proper definition for it. (Sorry my English isn't very good) Does grounding got anything to do with this issue? All the help is welcome, cheers!
