"Whoa, whoa!
The Load Sharing system uses the Frame Ground
as signal return in most commercial additions.
The test should be conducted from both Positive
and Negative DC output busses of resistance to
the Frame. Anything less than MEGOHMS means
the supply is set up for Integrated Grounding.

redundant power supplies?

Thanks Alex, that makes more sense.
