The measure should show about 5-10 VAC if you don't come from the shower

The neutral is easy to check ; around 5-10VAC betweent neutral and
ground (a water pipe for instance or a heater in case of collective
heating).


If you are seeing an actual 5 - 10 VAC on the meter between neutral and ground in a household system, and the wiring is otherwise to-code (US NEC), something is wrong.
