Electrolysis

Just want to get an idea from anyone out there that could advise me why the earth on the AC circuit should not be via something like a starting capacitor to ensure DC cannot get involved & hence not have electrolysis problems on boats. (not considering RF) It would seem a viable alternate to galvanic isolators.

Regards Bill
