Are advocating a scenario to use Neutral bout to ground and to use external ground as external neutral?
NO, NO, NO, NO. I'm not advocating this, nor have I done anything remotely close to such craziness.

I'm actually not advocating anything to you Romy. I'm just asking whether you are bonding your dedicated ground to Neutral. If so, I can't see how cheater plugs would help in your situation - your dedicated ground and your house ground would still be connected via the Neutral. In which case, what's the point of a dedicated ground???

To understand my thinking overall, just look at how things are done on a metal-hulled yacht. Here, they have to get true isolation, or else the metal hulls would corrode over time in the sea water.

Mani.

PS. Using a 'star' grounding system, I have pretty much 0V between all the components in my playback... and also the Neutral.
