Is it usual that domestic mains electricity in Spain isn't grounded?

We're getting it grounded at home, which I thought might be an anomaly, but now I'm in the library and getting the same tell-tale tingling sensation when running my fingers along the surfaces of my laptop.

@blag I always find electrical systems of other countries fascinating. In Japan all outlets are "ungrounded", essentially because they heavily rely on Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCI). As every circuit is protected from ground faults through other means, they don't tend to use grounded outlets. Maybe it's the same in Spain? Have a poke around your breaker box!
