Hello everyone. I just moved into a new apartment two days ago. I viewed the apartment six days ago and when I viewed the apartment I turned lights on and touched metal latches and never got shocked.
I moved in two days ago and Now im getting shocked on the light switches and metal latches. My main concern is he light switch screws. I'm getting zapped the hardest on the light switch screws.
I brought the problem up to management and they brought in an electrician who said nothing was wrong and that it was static. A lot of static. They gave me a small humidifier. It seems to work here and there but I'm still getting large shocks half the time from the light switch screws. I can see the shocks inbetween my finger and the screw.
Does anybody know what I'm dealing with here? Is this just static electricity? It just doesn't seem like my efforts to put moisture in the apartment are doing any good. I'm boiling water and using a humidifier.
Any ideas?
Thank you!
