[C320-list] Has anyone had a Meg Test done on their Shore Power

Jeff's right.  30KV is a Hi Pot test and used primarily for high voltage
system insulation testing 1KV and up..  A standard Megger will provide
600-2000 volts DC and is used to test Low voltage <1KV wires and equipment.
 Either way it would be an expensive test to do in a boat because of the
lack of isolation switches that are mandatory in an AC wired building.  I
have never heard of this being required in a boat.  A stray voltage test
would be more appropriate.
