It definitely can be the converter. There are two emi capacitors that could be defective. One cap connects hot to ground, the other connects neutral to ground.

You might be able to test for a defective cap if you have a generator with a floating ground. With generator running, measure ac voltage from ground to hot and from ground to neutral at a receptical. Both measurements should be about 60V. If there's a big difference in the two voltages then a cap may be defective.
