ups elda is in trouble

okay, so, we've been having a ground fault issue on the server rack and i invented and built a simple testing tool and it WORKS iT WoRkS it wORKS! and as a result now I know this:

ups ELDA is handing the ground pin 54-57vAC at 17mA and 7-20vDC (variable) at variable up to 19mA.

I can confidently say That's Bad and I've pulled it and stuck server elda on ups LODESTON with server lodestone while I try to figure out if there's any way an internal lead-acid battery fault could cause this.

I don't think so, but am I wrong? Could it?

eta: ex-MSFT friend came up with a good test and it's definitely not the battery. Ding!

The most funny semi-subtle thing in Lower Decks's first episode was the way they use absolutely bog standard NextGen establishing shots with animation CGI that's almost realistic, and looks realistic at first glance, followed by, you know, this nonsense. It's kinda perfect and I love it.
