There are instruments that can warn you if your shore power is hooked up 
so the grounds are reversed. Many boats have a buzzer so if they come 
into a marina that is wired opposite to their boat they get a warning.  
After I wired my pier, not knowing any better,  a friend with such a 
warning tied up here and the buzzer went off. I switched the white and 
green leads in the pier wiring and solved the problem. I use an 
inexpensive marine charger that is on all the time and when my zinc was 
replaced last spring after two years + it really did not need to be changed.
