Seeburg 160TM1 RCA Plug question

[rudy18d]

Well, I can't even attach a 16kb file to illustrate my question because it clearly illustrates it. Says the website has exceeded its attachment limit...

So, quick question on page 2470B of Seeburg 222 manual for the 160TM1. While I was testing the RCA plug coming from the Tormat, confirmed that green wire goes to center male pin of RCA. Red wire and shielding are soldered to the outer ground of the RCA. Just confirming that there should be continuity from center male pin to shielding ground and red wire because I am getting it and the schematic seems to show that to be the case. Just seems odd to me as center is usually positive and exterior shielding is negative and the two usually never meet.
Thanks,
Rudy

Yes, there is definitely continuity between the center pin and the outer 'ground' conductor.

In fact it should show very little resistance, a couple of ohms maximum.

Thanks Marty. Measured in at 2.1 Ohms.
