Hi,
Is it usual to have a voltage of 100+ V AC present on a case screw of a DVD player? I've measured the voltage between the case screw and a known earth (in my case the earth pin of a nearby wall socket) using a multimeter.
The DVD player is double insulated. I'm currently in a business premises with 3 phase. Both the earth pin I used to test and the DVD player are on the same phase.
I found it when I noticed a tingling on the back of my arm when connecting some AV leads and lent on the case slightly. I've tested another DVD player and have voltage on that too! Is this right?
Other equipment I've tested, like the TV, kettle and phone system, don't have a voltage present on any of the case screws.
Should I worry????
Many thanks
