Re: CLEANED A/CON NOTICED CHARGE FROM...
If you're getting a shock or tingle when touching the frame you should check to see if the aircon has been properly grounded (earthed). I suspect the electrics have not been installed correctly. You should not get any sort of shock/tingle if you turn off the breaker either installed on the wall close to the unit or in the main panel. Turning off the aircon with just the remote will not stop the electricity from going to the unit.
