Best way to double check this is to plug the connectors together and ohm them out making sure it goes how you think it does.

+1 - I've spent my entire life troubleshooting electrical things, and know that it's really easy to overlook the obvious. If I'm stuck on something I'll often ask one of my crew or even my kids to review my wiring. Can't count the number of times I've wired something backwards but couldn't see it at first.

If the panel is fine - did you check the powercon tail you have providing power to it.  Perhaps it is also the source of a G N swap.  Or perhaps the cord is damaged internally? Allowing some ground. Neutral contact?

A few years ago Neutrik accidentally released a batch of NL4 connectors with the conductors mixed up. A visual inspection would show correct wiring, but people were blowing up tweeters because 1 and 2 were swapped.

I test every cable or adapter I build. It's the only way to be certain.

I once found a batch of Edison receptacles with the brass (hot) and silver (neutral) screws swapped. If I hadn't made a practice of wiring to the position instead of wiring to the screw color, the hot and neutral would have been swapped.

I had one those, lucky the day I found it was after I made up two conductor cables for some passive speakers all that happened was I had no sound.
