Answer 1

Actually, many components in your computer, are sensitive to static, it can even destroy circuitry. To keep those components safe, ground yourself by touching the case, however the power cord must be plugged in, but the power should be off.

Answer 2

since static electricty can be harmful to ur circuit boards, so before u start playing with those things, you should touch ur metal case to ground urself .
