Default Shore power polarity: HELP!

Ok, so Far Cove has been plugged in to shore power at the marina all
winter. I go out for the weekend (story at
http://www.bcboatnet.org/cgi-bin/yab...m=117734 3693
), and when I try to plug in again last night, I get a "POLARITY"
light on my panel! Now, I haven't touched my end of the wiring or the
power cord, and I just checked the Marina: they didn't to any work
over the weekend and assure me their connector is correct.

SO: first, is there a diagram somewhere that shows which pins on a 30A
shore-power connector are supposed to be Line, Neutral, and Ground?
And second, is there another reason why a "polarity" light would go
on: maybe a ground-fault?
