Stray Voltage

Big L said:
I had the same thing,figured out it was because in my panel in my house the grounds and neutrals were indeed being shared in the box,which was sending voltage back thru the neutral.I which I know is a no-no unhooked the ground from my house and drove a seperate ground temporarily until I work on my box inside which will be installing a ground lug and seperating grounds and neutrals

What??? Grounds and neutrals must be connected in the box. Only subpanels isolate the ground and neutral.

ETA: I didn't see Jason's post before I posted. Worth saying twice anyway.
