Sort of. You can have a short to ground, which is basically electricity leaking from a charged conductor to a ground. It's dissipating without doing any useful work, so it's leaking, even if it's not called that. It can also be dangerous, should you come into contact with the wire that is shorting, and it decides to ground via you.

An electrician can help you with the problem, and can figure out if it's happening.
