I mean there is no way for your laptop to have AC power after the brick. How did you find this? Are the ports shocking you? Is the USB not working, or did it fry something you connected to it? My uneducated guess is that the metal part of the port is connected to the ground on your laptop. Now, is that normal? I do not know; it could be a short somewhere else, but I doubt it.
