[sdiy] Grounding check (OT)

[René Schmitz]

Hi Dave,

> How can I check this for sure? I tried measuring the strings against the recepticle-ground with a voltmeter, which read nothing (both AC and DC). Am I doing this right or are there better checks?

Use a continuity tester. (Ohm-meter) You should read near zero ohms 
between the ground (strings) and the mains protective earth pin.

Cheers,
  René
