Are there actual sparks that you know of? The only kinds of sparks that I'd accept are
1. When you unplug a heavy (inductive?) load, like an ordinary electric kettle. That seems to be normal.
2. Static electricity -- when you get grounded after shuffling across a carpet when humidity is low (winter, if you have no humidifier). Also after putting on or off a nylon coat.
Anything else sounds unsafe. I'm not an expert in these matters.
