Are you saying there was no external power source -- no shore cord
connected? Was the water hose, TV cable, or other line connected?
Obviously, I'm trying to find the source of the coach-to-earth potential
difference.
No, it was very definitely plugged in to my dedicated 30 amp outlet.
What's different is that this coach has a male plug in the generator compartment to plug in to the generator. So instead of using the regular AC cord i used the plug in the generator space instead.
THere is a transfer switch so the coach does not know the difference.
I know about 'hot skin" and ground shorts in RV but't never gotten a jolt like this and a lot of the wiring is fairly recent.
