Thanks for the feedback! So what I'm getting is grounding the casing is bad most of the time. I've used these cables with several par lights without issue, but it just fried the most recent lights I used. I guess now I'm wondering: Why did it fry this time and not other lights? How can you prevent this from happening to other lights? Should the cable be rewired? If so, what's the best way for these to be wired? Just remove the grounding to the casing on both sides?

Does the wiring on this cable look right: It appears the shielding was grounded to the casing. Is this normal? I have a different cable that is not grounded to the casing so trying to figure out what the difference is. TIA
