I've seen more miswired AC Mains outlets in my life then I can count.
Reversed hot neutral, reversed neutral ground, reversed hot ground.

And the NEC requires the neutral and ground only be bonded at the entry breaker panel/
I worked in a place with about 18 sub panels, every one of them had the neutral ground jumper in place.

That place also had at least a dozen outlets with H and N reversed.?

I'm still amazed it passed inspection. Oh wait, inspection in most cities in KY is by firemen, whom I'm sure know how to fight fires, not sure they know a volt from an amp....

A friend worked in a local hospitlal the new wing had all the 120V outlets Hots miswired to 240.
All of them.

Heads rolled in that mess.
