Hi. The house is an old clapboard farm house. The wiring is mostly Romex with a few old circuits that are BX. The last electrical work was done 2 years ago and there haven't been any problems until now. Starting a few weeks ago you get a shock when standing barefoot on the ground and touching metal. My nephew discovered this when playing electric bass shoeless. He stepped on the ground outside and got shocked whenever he touched metal on the bass (the bass was plugged into an amplifier). I then took off my shoes and touched the metal casing of an outdoor socket (far from where my nephew was). I felt a minor shock. I plugged a tester into that outlet and it tested OK. The bathroom sink has been giving minor shocks but when my sister was holding the extendible shower hose (metal) and then touched the sink, She got a nice zap, much more than standing on the ground. The water heater is electric for what that's worth. I'm going there this weekend to hopefully find out what it is and save money on an electrician. Can anyone suggest some troubleshooting tips or add some insight? Thanks

Good day everyone! I have some questions about the electrical system of my new cabin. First off, I'll give my observations of what I have found so far: 1. The main panel does not appear to be grounded. The main service is 100 or 200 amp. There are two hot wires coming in and there is a wire to the neutral bus bar. The neutral bus bar is bonded with the ground bus bar. There is nothing attached to the ground bus bar. 2. There is a large Wineguard TV antenna installed on the roof. The only wire that is coming from the antenna is the coax cable that hangs down the side of the cabin and runs directly into the living room. 3. Most of the outlets are two-prong. 4. Is it ok to ground the panel to a well water piping system? The pipe coming into the cabin is copper, but converts to pvc after about 5 feet. The well casing is only a few feet outside the basement wall, though. I would like to do some updating of the electrical. Any suggestion about where I should start? Thanks
