I'm wondering about the capacitor in the schematic (marked with red). Why is there a need for it?
It connects power supply ground (dangerous side) to the chassis ground (safe side). And why is there sometimes also a resistor connected across it (several mega ohms)?
I suppose the resistor discharges the capacitor after power off.
