No. The capacitor will not pass any DC build up.

"A discharge adapter" Do you mean a static discharge device? They will help in the event of a lightning strike but as for normal static build up no. The flash over voltage is too high,usually a few hundred volts,to prevent damage from occurring before the device functions.

You mean it has standard two wire outlets? The electrical service panel must have a ground connection. That is the law. It must be grounded back to the utility service.
