First isolate the power supply to the electric heater, you can open up the junction box to check if any wiring loose or touching some metal surfaces. If not sure, contact a qualified electrician to carry out an inspection.

Also at the same time after isolating the power supply, you can open the front cover of the heater to check any wiring inside loose & made contact with metal surfaces

parts of plumbing in water heater still metallic, including power cables and heating elements. when cable connections short in assembly that touches water, water carries the electricity.

It's ok as long as the person showers in a full rubber insulated suit.

Yes, chrome plated plastic. Not a conductor. But the water stream will carry the electricity.

Come on folks, we live in the tropic, no need for water heaters.
Some hoes/holes need hot water to kill bacteria, fungus, virus and other filth, high level ones need boiling water.

Not everyone has the ability to do that… it is better to leave it to an electrician. I might be wrong but I think a central heater with a tank is safer. There is a leak issue with mine and the moment I turned the heater on my mains tripped. Whereas the wall type might not have a reservoir of water to cause the trip hence resulting in the EDMWer situation
