Mac mini electric shock

Is it a mild, short shock? Do you live in a dry climate? Do you wear fuzzy acrylic clothing? In other words, is it a static electricity shock? You may need to ground yourself before touching something electric. Static electricity is not unusual in winter where I live.

If you think it is an issue with the electronics of the device, get Apple to take a look at it. Go to this page to find your nearest Apple Authorized Service Provider (AASP) or Apple Authorized Distributor (AAD) --> Find Locations

A quick static discharge is not good for the Mac mini or other connected devices.

A continuous electric discharge is very dangerous to people, the Mac mini and other devices.

If you are experiencing any static or continuous electrical discharge...?

You should disconnect everything and call a certified electrician before someone is electrocuted.
