It should NOT be tied to the piping. Look for some dielectric unions at the
tank. Then hook the safety wire back up, right now.

While I generally agree that the green (ground) wire should go through the CM
choke, here’s an exception: My gas water heater was shutting down whenever I
was on 160. It has a grounding cord, but the ground is totally redundant
because the tank is tied into the copper plumbing. (That would not be the case
with non-metallic plumbing.) I made a choke with a two-wire extension cord, and
left the green wire open. No more cold showers.
