CY: The grounds and neutrals go to different bars. Beyond that I
don't know.

Do you have a good grounding conductor from the subpanel
: to the main panel?

CY: There is a conductor. But the fellow who runs the camp didn't
seem at all pleased with the electrician. So, it may not be good.

Is there a good ground at the main panel? By good
: ground I am referring to two ground rods and a connection to
the main water
: line.

CY: The panel in the shower building has no signs of ground. The
wire goes out to a cement box, which sits maybe 6 feet from the
building. I see no connection from the panel to the water line.

CY: That is a very wise question. I don't have a digital camera,
but been considering getting one.




I'm thinking that you need to get an experienced electrician to look over
the electrical system. There is obviously a hazard to human life. This is
not a situation for a do-it-yourselfer to play around with. You need to
make things right and soon! Get a professional electrician now! What ever
the cost it is still cheaper than a human life.
