First you may read continuity as some devices in the rig will cause this.
Open the 120 volt power distribution panel. Turn off all circuit breakers. Check between the white(neutral) and the green or bare ground wire. You should have continuity from genset cord body with jumper.
Check between the black and the ground. You should not have continuity.
If you do not have as shown, then unplug the rig's shore power cord. verify the cable to insure it is wired correctly. Has some one replaced the rig's cord body? Check it.
