cannot see, in isolation, how your going to know when your "done" with
your project, unlike a diesel engine where you can be pretty sure the
mechanic did the job well.


With all due respect, you are long on criticism and short on
suggestions.

I'll be happy if I can:

1. Locate the cause or causes of the neutral wire to green wire low
resistance.

2. Eliminate the apparent neutral wire leakage/imbalance (hopefully as
a side benefit of #1).

3. Understand the overall AC wiring scheme including the locations of
the neutral bus and green wire bus and how they relate to the wire
coding scheme.

4. Get the green wire bus properly grounded.

5. Install working GFIs where needed (galley and heads).

6. Verify that all loads and branch circuits are properly connected.

Any other suggestions?
