My neighbor had the same problem. It turned out to be the electrodes in the hot water tank were fried. He had winterized the camper and drained the tank but did not turn the switch off on electric and he was still using the camper pluged to the pedestal. It took a while to figure it out

Today while working on my RV I noticed when I knelled down on the damp ground and touching a metal portion of the RV I would receive a mild shock.
I have the RV plugged into a 15 amp home outlet using an extension cord and standard 30 to 15 amp adapter. The plug on the extension cord is missing the ground prong. I realize using that cord was my first mistake.
What I am trying to determine is if that alone is my problem. Even if the ground was missing as it was should current be running through the RV the way it is or does that indicate a different problem? Thoughts?
