While hooking an Xbox to the TV the output cables gave a tingle? What
causes the tingle? I have felt a slight tingle while touching a

Static, or maybe a polarized plug put in backwards would be my guesses.
Or a wall outlet for a polarized plug wired wrong??? (hard to put a
polarized plug in backward, but easy to wire an outlet backwards if
you're a DIY and don't pay attention)

True, that's the only reason I see for that to happen as well...
You can use an inexpensive outlet tester that looks like a cordless plug
with diode indicators, you plug it in like a plug, it has a legend & the
order in which it lights up indicates if the outlet is wired correctly
or not.
