Heya Frank25,My understanding is that the drain wire is typically connected to the ground plug on the side nearest the electrical outlet. It should not be connected to the ground on the side nearest the unit. See the link provided, and look at the diagram for "Flavor 1".
Just a thought IMHO....Many people don't like to use shielded power cables for their amplifiers....many shielded cables seem to restrict dynamics....but what works well for you, may not work for others...
Best of luck, and be safe.

Also, check the archives....there are quite a few questions and responses to this very same question....
