FWIW, I have had 2 of the 30amp recepticles fail over the years due to a reverse polarity issue in the dock. They melted away the potting between the terminals, and I did not discover them intill the power started to fluxuate. |
VERY interesting! My gut feeling tonight was that I will be looking at a weakened receptacle for shore power. It is from 1987, and my thought was that this current might have been enough to fry it (since it might have already been on its way out), but not enough current to trip my AC Mains breaker. As in... the weak shore power receptacle crapped out before the breaker could kick in.
With what you wrote above, I'll hone in on that in the AM. Thanks!
And captain K... I sure will spend plenty of "quality time" with my digital multimeter! ha ha
