    Feel Electricity running through air duct??

    I removed the clamp and touched the fan while it was running and the stray current was gone..I just connected the air duct with tape since I don't have room for an elbow...turned on all the lights one at a time and there is no shock anywhere like it should be. Copper pipes should be safe...

    Feel Electricity running through air duct??

    this being my first time around setting up the grow room--how do you ground the air duct to the copper pipe?? i know they have the the grounding clamp to the part that goes to the copper pipe...so do you just pick a random point in your air duct to connect the copper wire and run it to a point...

    Feel Electricity running through air duct??

    Here is a pic of the fans I'm using from HTG Supply. and no it does not look like that but it is also not just laying on the ground. For whatever reason the copper wire was spray painted black on the outside of the house and it is pulled tight into the ground. Is it possible the stake is...

    Feel Electricity running through air duct??

    Everyone thanks for the input. I have checked every single cord very closely and there are no bare wires or tears anywhere. Picograv I think you might be right about the fans producing the current through the air duct. I checked my main breaker box and found the copper wire that runs outside...

    Feel Electricity running through air duct??

    definitely sure it was not the vibrations from the fan. It was a shock, so i touched it again and you could feel a light current, like a tingling sensation almost. i will inspect everything before powering these back on.

    Feel Electricity running through air duct??

    ok, the light and ballast are new, the inline duct fans are new. the only thing not new are the power strips but i will check all wires. I did go back and plugged in the three fans alone and didnt feel anything so i think its safe to cross those off. Thanks for the help
