We own a new house built in summer 2006. Last summer we started noticing a small 'buzzing' electrical short sensation when touching any of the 3 outside water faucets. It is much worse when standing on wet concrete in bare feet and varies from faucet to faucet.
The builder sent an electrician who could not find the problem, so he just attached a stiff ground wire to one of the faucets and the problem is still there.
Some people have told me this can be caused by a short in the water heater element, so should we call a plumber next? We have 2, Bradford White 50 gallon water heaters, model #M250S6DS5.
Thanks for any advice.
