After all done, I went in to turn on air for the dogs. Well the thermostat was throwing up an error code and wouldn't turn on. I finally got a brain and went to check my PI readout and it said I had an E2 code. This was an open ground and the PI shutdown so I wouldn't do any damage.

Don't know what this could have done to our system without the PI but nice to have it and not worry about it.
Flip side of that coin is, that an open ground on the pedestal would not have harmed your rig, and your AC would have worked fine. Just as if you were on a generator. Your rig does not need a ground, just a hot and a neutral. The ground prevents someone getting shocked at the pedestal.
