Just ran into an "Open Ground" error using my Prog. Dyn. EMS

Anyway, finally went to an older section of the park with 30A sockets, and the EMS is happy. Even when I use our 15A adapter, so I know it wasn't our adapter's problem.
This is the second time our EMS has alerted us to electrical problems on this trip to Eastern/Maritime Canada. Never had any problems before. Visitors beware.
