I have an adaptor for Toshiba laptops - converts three pain mains 230vAC to 2-pin DC16V @6A
It powers the laptop as it should but if I brush anything conductive on the laptop I get a shock. Additionally, if I connect another mains powered device to the laptop, as soon as I make the connection, the mains ring circuit breaker trips.
Is it something that can be easily fixed and if so, would anyone care to guide me? Even if not, I'm interested in the cause of this as it's not the first device I've been shocked by.
