William,
Your opinion seems to me the most probable case. Because the rear side
of the CPU's body always has a hazardous electric voltage. I never took
it to any expert but I think it is a dangerous thing. I take extreme
care not to touch the rear side of CPU when it's power cable is inside
the plug.
Thanks!
