Either you live with it as it doesnt really harm you or purchase 3 pin plug I see, thanks for the info   but it does not always happen though...  Sometimes the same socket will leak but sometimes does not  |

If still have current shock issue, check your power outlet, lastly send your Mac for warranty. Thanks for the info https://www.facebook.com/maccores/photos/a....pe=3&permPage=1 Why Apple so cheapskate....lol Small piece of metal also want to save. |
