It is a common issue when the glow plug supply common rail is not insulated correctly from the threaded wire stud that the wire and nut attach to.
Make sure you have installed the rail so no metal contact is made with the stud.

I'm too drunk! Can someone send him a picture?
Did you or someone work on your engine before this started happening?
