Electric shock is very dangerous. It can happen if an exposed hot wire touches some part of the frame of your washing machine. Please make sure that proper precautions are taken when using your Samsung washing machine.

Root Cause:- Earthing Issue

What to do if you experience an electrical shock

1 Switch off the washing machine and remove the power cable.
2 3 plug socket is required for proper earthing else current will flow in the body of the unit. It is advisable that get the earthing checked by the local electrician.
3 Never under any circumstance, cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord.

For safety: The appliance must be properly grounded.

4 Do not use extension cable as other appliances connected to the same extension may have leaked electricity and transferred it to this appliance.
