As measured with a clamp on meter.
When the Power Selector Switch is on Shore Power every thing checks out fine. Current on Black (hot) and White (Neutral) match and there is 0 current on Green (Ground). The Ground and Neutral are not connected on the boat.
When the Power Switch is on Generator there is .340 Amps on the Green ground wire. The Ground and the Neutral are bonded together at the generator. Is this a problem particularly from a safety standpoint? Is there something in the generator that is causing this that is normal?
Your perspectives are welcome. In the attached sketch. Black is Hot, Orange is Neutral (white wouldn't show up) and Green is ground. The top sketch is with the Selector Switch is in Shore. The bottom sketch is when the selector switch is in Generator.
